We WILLIAM AKROYD of Lower Wade Street Iron Foundry, Ironfounder, and
JEREMIAH DRIVER of Seedlings Mount Moulder both of Halifax in the county of
York, do hereby declare the nature of the said Invention for "IMPROVEMENTS IN
JUGS, AND OTHER VESSELS, USED FOR BEER, AND OTHER FROTHY OR FERMENTED
LIQUIDS," to be as follows:-
The object of our invention is the construction of vessels such as pitchers, jugs
pots, cans, and other vessels, used for beer, or porter, or other fermented liquids,
whereby they can pour out the beer into glasses in a clear state, without the froth
or foam however ripe it may be.
I construct my vessels with a spout at the top, but the spout is carried down to
the bottom of the vessel, before it enters it, so that only the beer or porter or other
liquid at the bottom, can pass through the froth being always at the top, the
spout may pass down either outside or inside the vessel in the form of a trough,
and can be made of pot, earthenware, tin, or other substance, a sieve or screen is
placed at the bottom of the can, to keep out the hops, and the like.

We WILLIAM AKROYD of Lower Wade Street, Iron Foundry, Iron Founder and
JEREMIAH DRIVER of Seedlings, Mount, Moulder, both of Halifax, in the county of
York, do hereby declare the nature of this Invention and in what manner the
same is to be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and by
the following statement:
The object of our invention is the construction of vessels such as pitchers, jugs,
pots, and other vessels used for beer or porter, or other fermented liquids, whereby
they can pour out the beer into glasses in a clear state without the froth or foam,
however ripe it may be.
We construct our vessels with a spout at the top, but the spout is carried down
to the bottom of the vessel before it enters it, so that only the beer or porter or
other liquid at the bottom can pass through, the froth being always at the top; the
spout may pass down either outside or inside the vessel, in the form of a trough,
and can be made of pot, earthenware, or other substance, a sieve or screen is
placed at the bottom of the can, to keep out the hops and the like.
DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS.
Fig. 1 is a sectional elevation of my earthenware, stoneware, or glassware jug,
the spout being formed on the outside of the jug.
Fig. 2 is a sectional elevation of same with spout formed inside of the jug.
Fig. 3 is a reduced cross section of Fig. 1 on line D. E.
Fig. 4 is a reduced cross section of Fig. 2 on the line F, G.
A is our jug, with a spout B, at the top, the spout is carried down to the bottom
of the vessel at C, before it enters it, by this means only the liquid beer, or porter,
or other liquid, towards the bottom of the jug, can pass through into the spout,
the froth being always at the top; the spout may pass down either outside or
inside the vessel, in the form of a trough, and can be made of pot, earthenware,
glass, or other. similar substance, a moveable sieve or screen, may be placed at the
bottom of the jug to keep out the hops or other sediment. Jugs so constructed are
of great service in facilitating the quick serving of ripe beer, or other fermented
liquids.
.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of our said
invention and in what manner the same is to be performed we declare that what
we claim is :-
The arrangement and construction of jugs or vessels for fermented liquids, as
shewn and described.
Dated this Sixth day of March 1886.
