LESS Alcohol IN
BEER MADE TODAY.
Best Grades Of Lager Are
Reduced Nearly |
80 Per Cent.
KICK IS LOSING"
OLD TIME STRENGTH

Alcohol in beer is rapidly decreas-
ing Restrictive measures Instituted by
the government are turning the trick
Prior 10 the order issued curtailing the
amount OF grain 10 be used in the man
ufacture OF beer the brewers used any
where from i-2 to 3 3-4 per cent. alco-
hol. Now that only 70 per cent, Of the
other ingredients can be employed. the
quantity Of alcohol is also reduced, and
the high grades OF beer contain only
2 "a per cent.
A the quality OF the beer moves
downward the alcohol Is reduced, and
the inferior product has only from 3-i
TO per cent. This accounts for the
statement made some time ago that
there Is not so much kick" in much OF
that manufactured as heretofore. and
that Il 10 coming down very close 10
near" beer.
Based on the sales OF stamps issued
by the International Revenue Depart
ment In this district, the output had
not decreased up TO May T. There has
been as much manufactured as here
tofore. but the grades have been cheap
ened. That is to say. the beer sold now
is not as heavy. as IL was. This has
been demonstrated 10 the satisfaction
OF investigators. One OF these reported
several days ago that a consumer whose
capacity was limited 10 a certain num-
Der OF glasses before he felt the effects
had gone far beyond his quota. and
when he quit he was still psinfully
sober.
While the quality is not up to the
old standard. so far as the kick" is
concerned. the tax has not been re-
duced. The. government still receives
SO for every barrel Of 30 gallons. and
will continue TO get this as long as
the alcohol used exceeds one-half OF
per cent. Brewers would not be at
all surprised II in the near future the
Food Administration made further re-
ductions in the amount Of grain mat
ter, bringing this down TO 30 per cent.
or even less.
This accounts for their casting an
anchor 10 windward by preparing for
the manufacture Of what is now known
as near beer. With the prices OF
whiskey and other liquors mounting all
the time Il will not be long before
the cost Of these Will be prohibitive
