Beer Mug with Metal Bands – LARP Foam

Ready for a good old tavern dust-up? This cylindrical foam tankard stands about 20–21 cm tall (approx. 7.9–8.3 in) with a body diameter of 18 cm (about 7.1 in). The sculpted “wood” staves are stained a warm brown and cinched by riveted, metal-look hoops that flow into a generous handle roughly 8 cm deep (about 3.1 in) for an easy grip. The interior is painted black to mimic the waxed lining of period mugs. Built from closed-cell EVA foam with a coreless construction and protected by a durable latex coating, it’s light, safe, and convincing—made to throw, swing, and survive rowdy scenes.

“Tankard” once described any wooden drinking vessel and often resembled a small barrel with hoops—exactly the look this mug captures. Early, lidless tankards appear in the archaeological record nearly 2,000 years ago, remaining common in inns and alehouses throughout the medieval and early-modern eras. This modern foam rendition gives you the historic silhouette while meeting today’s safety standards for live action events.

Raise a ruckus—safely. The Beer Mug with Metal Bands delivers authentic tavern vibes and durable LARP performance, making it a perfect prop for brawlers, dwarves, rogues, and innkeepers alike. Add it to your kit for instant character and instant fun.
