EXTRACT from a report on an Anaiyhis of Gabdneb & Co.'s " X India" Pale Ale, made by Professor Alfeed S. Taylob, 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 render 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 tho blood, and which may bo regarde 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 tho Alo. "As to the quality of the Ale for Indian 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 ohemioal analysis, which has been made for my own satisfaction, I have used this Ale as an article , of diet for several weeks, and I find it to be as wholesome and proper for daily use a3 its ohemioal composition indioates."
