Austria's next unusual stamp
Stamp in shape of 🍺🍻 Beer mat- made from real wood. Stamp is detachable. 

For this year’s technical innovation, Austrian Post is issuing an unusual miniature sheet in the shape of a beer-mat with a detachable stamp.

Description
The "Beer Mat" miniature sheet is original and entirely safe. It not only looks like a beer mat but is also made from the original material of wood pulp cardboard. The production process was challenging: the rough, absorbent material required multiple printing processes to apply the layers of colour and adhesive adequately, and the thickness of the cardboard, at 1.4 millimetres, necessitated the use of special band steel for the die-cutting. The gummed stamp, also thick, featuring a frothy glass of beer and the caption "Beer has it all", can be detached from the beer mat. Some of the bubbles of the beer foam on the front of the block have also been enhanced with a tactile relief varnish.
