Il mio amico ha questa vecchia bottiglia di birra del suo bisnonno che è emigrato in America. Sono curioso di sapere se in Germania producono ancora qualcosa del genere e che tipo di birra è?

Can’t be too old, as Rheinland-Pfalz, the state that is mentioned in the text, didn’t exist before 1946.

I think they might still be made as tourist souvenirs. And this is clearly a tourist souvenir: it says “Greetings from Rhineland-Palatinate to Germany”, while the text below tells of all the things that Rhineland-Palatinate has that “Germany” doesn’t. The picture shows the Rhine Gorge, and the woman of course represents the Loreley.
Of course, Rhineland-Palatinate is famous for wine, not beer. And the state didn’t even exist until 1946, so this isn’t an antique: it’s clearly post-war.
I don’t know what it contains. Perhaps a higher-quality picture taken in a good light would show the seal at the top a bit better.

Found it via google reverse image search.
Here’s a link to Swiss ebay with many more photos:
I’m really glad you didn’t try to catch more details from the label and stuff like that

Thats a Tourist Gift, but you can buy a Siphon similar to this from some Breweries and get it filled up with fresh beer at the Brewery to take it home and drink it within few days.

It’s not beer but a malt liquor named “Sailer Fest Malzschnaps”.
Reverse image search is a really handy tool for stuff like this. 😉
Edit:
They have several different prints for this style of bottle, for example this one:

Oh, I found this distillery, which might be the one that produced this malt liquor:
