CHRISTMAS ALE.
OCTOBER BREWING OF SUPERIOR BRILLANCY IN
COLOUR AND FLAVOUR.

ASPINALL'S EAST INDIA PALE ALE
AND BITTER ALE.
This fine-flavoured and much-esteemed ALE, so largely in
demand during the Christmas of 1851, Christmas 1852. and Christ-
mas 1853 and 1854, is again in fine condition for Christmas 1855;
in Casks of 9, 18, and 36 Gallons—strong or mild.
Orders should he sent early to the Anchor Brewery, Birkenhead,
or to the Liverpool Stores, Walmer-buildings, Water-street, and
Rumford-street, near the Exchange, Liverpool.

Dr. Brett's Opinion of Aspinall's Preston Pans Beer, Mild Pale
Ale, and East India Pale Ale, brewed at the Anchor Brewery,
Birkenhead.
"Laboratory, Royal Infirmary, Liverpool, Dec., 1852.
"I have, at the request of Mr. H. K. Aspinall, of the Anchor
Brewery, Birkenhead, submitted to a careful chemical examina-
tion three descriptions of Beer, called respectively Preston Pans
Beer, Mild Pale Ale, and East India Pale Ale. lam decidedly of
opinion that they are very wholesome beverages, and contain no
other ingredients than those found in pure malt liquors. They
have been very well fermented, and consequently do not contain
any amount of unfermented sugar, frequently found in some
descriptions of Ale ; and being also free from any excess of mucila-
ginous matters capableof acting as ferments, they are remarkably
bright, and retain that brightness to the last, Several medical
friends of mine have expressed a very favourable opinion as re
garde their quality. "R. H. BRETT, Ph. D., F.LS.,
"And Lecturer on Chemistry and Medical Jurisprudence."

Dr. Sheridan Muspratt'sopinion of Aspinall'sPale Ale and Preston
Pans Beer.
"Liverpool, Dec. 12th, 1854.
" Dear Sir,—Having undertaken, at your request, a research
upon your different Beers, videlicit—East India Pale Ale, Mild
Pale Ale, India Pale Ale, Preston Pans Beer, I feel happy in for-
warding you the annexed results. The sifting nature of the
chemical examination to which your Malt Liquors have been
subjected, establishes their incontestible purity; they do not
contain a particle of any injurious substance. I must confess I
was not a little surprised to find that such excellent Beers were
brewed in the vicinity of Liverpool. It proves in a most satis-
factory manner that you have exercised much care in the selection
of the best kind of Bops and Malt, and that you possess great
scientific skill in conducting the several important stages through
which these have to pass. I was very much struck with the
India Pale Ale, twelve months old. It is extremely bright,
sparkling, and refreshing, and must act as an excellent tonic,
and, I am sure, will be relished by all those seeking an agreeable
and beneficial anodyne bitter, which tends to preserve the vigour
of the stomach, and conduces, oftentimes, to the restoration of
the health of that organ, when debilitated. Your Preston Pans
Beer is a very nice light beverage, having a peculiar but fine
flavour, which must be greatly relished by many families. The
East India Pale Ale and the Mild Pale Ale are like the above well
fermented, and made from the best and most wholesome in-
gredients, therefore are sure to command popularity. In con-
clud►ng, I am glad to tell you that, having now tasted your Ales,
I shall in future use them in my house, as they are fully equal to
any I have analysed.-1 am, Sir, yours respectfully,
" SHERIDAN MUSPRATT, F.R.S.,
" Mr. Henry K. Aspinall. " Professor of Chemistry."
The demand for this fine-flavoured ALE is greatly on the in-
crease, Merchants, Bottlers, and Hotelkeepers finding it equal in
flavour, colour, and quality to the finest Berlon-brewed Ales, and
at Prices very considerably less than any similar Ale now on the
market. It is warranted to keep sound in %% ood or Bottle for
years, and never changes its brilliancy of colour. It improves by
long keeping. Hogsheads, Barrels, Half-barrels, and Quarter•

The following is a testimonial of a gentleman at Frodahnin, is
Cheshire, accompanying an order for a further supply of Preston
Pans Table Beer:—

- - -
"Frodaham, Cheshire, March 31, 1851.
"Sir.—Please to send me another quarter-barrel of Preston
Pans Beer, directing it, as before, per IL L., and C. Railway, to
Frodaham.
"The barrel which I have now on draught is giving every
satisfaction, continuing quite sound and brisk, though it has now
been more than six weeks on draught. I use a vent-peg, which
closes of itself, with a spring, so that the beer cannot be left ex-
posed to the air through the carelessness of servants.
"I suppose you do not require that empty caske should always
be returned literally within three months, for this I could not
always do, as a quarter-barrel generally lasts from eight to ten
weeks on draught, and I like to have it on the stillion fora couple
of weeks before I begin to use it.
" Mr. 11. K. Aspinall, 13irkenhead."

FRAMPTON'S PILL OF HEALTH.—The mani-
fold advantages to the Heads of Families from the posses-
sion of a Medicine of known efficacy, that may be resorted to
with confidence, and used with success in cases of temporary sick-
ness, occurring in families more or less every day, are so obvious
to all, that no question can be raised of its importance to every
housekeeper in the kingdom.
They are an excellent aperient, create appetite, relieve languor,
and invigorate the spirits, and if taken atter an indulgence at
table, they quickly restore the system to its natural state of repose-
" For upwards of nine years (writes Mr. Thomas Province, of
Winclimore Hill, Middlesex,) I have experienced the efficacy of
this excellent Medicine. I had long previously been afflicted with,
headache and indigestion; but a friend having induced me to
make a trial of Frampton's Pills, I now inform you that a few
doses gave me great relief ; and during this long period of time
I have taken them in preference to any other medicine; and I
have the happiness of saying that I never had a better state of
health, which I attribute to Frampton's Pills. I beg further to
add, that this medicine is in, general use by my family, and we
know of nothing to equal it."
Persons of a Full Habit, who are subject to Head-ache, Giddi-
ness, Drowsiness, and Singing in the Ears, arising from too great
a flow of Blood to the Head, should never be without them, as
many dangerous symptoms will be entirely carried off by their
immediate use. For Females, these Pills are truly excellent,
removing all obstructions, the distressing Head-ache so very pre-
valent with the sex; Depression of Spirits, Dulnessof Sight, Ner-
vous Affections, Blotches, Pimples, and Sallowness of the Skin
and give a healthy and juvenile bloom to the complexion. T
Mothers they are confidently recommended as the best med icin
that can be taken ; and for children of all ages they ar
unequalled. As a pleasant, safe, and easy Aperient, the
unite tbe recommendation of a mild operation with the mos
successful effect. By regulating the dose, according to the ag
and strength of the patient, they become suitable for every case
in either sex, that can be required.
