Why Eight-Day

Into the Malt.

The usual four-day process OF making
malt for brewing may be compared 70
the unnatural rapid growth OF grain
planted In midsummer. 1t makes mali
quickly but at the sacrifice OF the vital
food quality OF the grain.
Malt as most OF our readers proDaDly
know, is the life, the substance of beer,
and tho food value OF any beer depends
on the richness OF the malt from which
II Is made.
Pabst exclusive eight-day malt Is made
in Natures own way, by slow growth or
the barley. All of the food value OF the
barley Is thus retained In Pnbst eight

Beer tho richest beer In food strength.
