GARDNER & CO.'S INDIA PALE ALE, ON DRAUGHT AT THE aBEYHOTJDSTD HOTEL MICHAEL COECOEAN, Pbopbietob. TJIXTUACT from a report on an ANALYSIS Jld of Gardnkb & Co.'s "X India" Pale Ale, made by Professor Alfred S. Tatlob, M.D., F.R.S., of Guy's Hospital, London :— "I believe this to be a sample of good, wholesome, and genuine Beer, sufficiently strong in alcohol to rendor it a pleasant stimulant, and to confer on it keeping properties. The mineral matter or ash is in small proportion, no greater than that which should be found in a genuine decoction of malt. It consists of alkaline, phosphate, and chloride salts', which are naturally found in the blood, and which may be regardo 1 as necessary constituents of our daily food. In the form and proportion in which they exist in this sample they are conducive to health, and confer wholesome properties on the Ale. "As to the quality of the Ale for lad Jan con sumption, I do not see that it admits of any improvement. It has the genuine taste which only malt and hops of good quality skilfully proportioned can give. " Apart from the results of this chemical analysis, which has been made for my own satisfaction, I have U3ed this Ale as an article of diet for several weeks, and I find it to be as wholesome and proper for daily use as its chemical composition indicates."

WE have for sale a few cases • SOLID WORT, for making Ale or Stout It has not been imported entirely as an article from which a large profit could be expected, but ■with a view of introducing a great want. It possesses the following advantages : Beer can be produced from it in places where it cannot be brewed in the ordinary way. It effects great saving in freight by ships or land carriage, owing to its very small bulk. It offers the convenience of being able to brew fresh beer from it when wanted, as the solid Wort, if preserved in its original packages, will keep for years. Ko expensive apparatus is requisite for brewing: A wooden tub to liquefy and ferment in, of sufficient size to allow space for the rising of the liquid caused by fermentation, the necessary casks, some small wooden vessels, and a few tools, mentioned in the instructions sufficing for the purpose. Good wholesome beer with the strength and flavour of the finest Kent Ales can be producedin a few hours at less cost than the present carriage on colonial beer to country districts.
