WHAT DOES TEHT MEAN?

It means just this Hops are the
most prominent factor In the maxi
Ing of honest beer They possess
both sedative and tonic qualities,
that is. they will enable you to
sleep well (hence the hop-pillows of
our grandmothers) and they
strengthen your entire nervous sys-
tenn.
The early Romans ate the young
shoots of the hop plant just as we
do asparagus. When hops were
first used in brewing In Eng
land two centuries ago, strong
prejudice existed against the In
novatlon, and parliament was petit
toned against the plant as a wick
ed weed. that would spoil the taste
Of beer and endanger the people.
But that was hundreds OF years
ago.
Connoisseurs who have visited
Astoria admit that the beer brewed
by John Kopp at the North Pacific
Brewery actually contains the
greatest amount of strength giving
power, the largest quantity of that
glutinous material which sticks to
your ribs, than any other beer
brewed on the coast, and that the
time will come when AstOrians will
be as proud Of her brew as the
city Of Milwaukee Is Of hers.
