But Boston was always noted for its beer
drinking propensity. Even the fOrefithers were
beer drinkers. In the early days the General
Court regula. ed the manufacture aud sale Of
beer, and any mixture OF molasses, coarse sugar,
or other materials, Instead Of alt, induced a
penalty equal to so for every offence. in 1873
the Court declared that beer was the pfiucinhi
commodity of New England. An old writer
