Default Beer lovers, help me out...

Hey guys, this has absolutely nothing to do with hunting or fishing. Well, maybe drinking beer, but what I'm looking for is some help identifying a beer stein I have. My dad gave it to me years ago. I know it's from Germany. He got it from an uncle of his that was stationed there in the military, probably shortly after WW2. I don't remember the exact translation of the poem on the sides, but it has something to do with a refreshing drink in a good time (happy hour?), does something and makes hearts young. The background looks black in the picture, but it's actually dark blue. I know there's likely no real monetary value to it with it's condition. It's been broken and repaired a few times. I have drank beer from it, although it's kinda awkward with the lid. Gets it the way a little. Maybe because it's been repaired and originally the lid's out of the way. Also it leaks just a little. So, I just use it as a decorative item in my kitchen, and keep beer bottle caps in it. I have several German brands pictured with it. I like American beer too, and I'm as American as they come. But you gotta hand it to those Germans, they really know how to brew. Anyway, This may be a long shot, but maybe some of y'all are fans of German beer too and might be familiar with German beer steins. I'm also posting this on a website about collecting, selling, and identifying beer steins, but I figured I'd post it here too. I'm just curious about identifying it. There's no maker's mark that I can see, but some of them don't have them and they're still authentic. I really don't care, I just think it's a cool beer stein. Any takers? Let me know what y'all think.
