PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in or relating to the Manufacture of Pale Ale.
We, ALEXANDER FRASER, of the Firm of Maclay & Co., Limited, Thistle
Brewery, Alloa, in the County of Clackmannan, Scotland, Managing Director,
and MACLAY & Co., LIMITED, Thistle Brewery, Alloa, in the County of Clack-
mannan, Scotland, Brewers, do hereby declare the nature of this invention to
be as follows:-
This invention relates to improvements in the manufacture of pale ale, the
object being to provide a liquid which shall be rich in invigorating and strengthen-
ing properties.
The principal feature of our invention consists in the substitution of oat malt
for barley malt, or for the greater part thereof, oat malt pale ale being otherwiso
prepared and brewed in a manner very similar to that which obtains in the
brewing of barley malt pale ale.
For example: A very successful brewing of oat malt pale ale may be obtained
from the undernoted compound, the ingredients being :-
1412
The quantity of hops used may be varied according to the season, or whether
the pale ale be for home or foreign consumption. It is to be noted that the oats
in the process of malting do not require to be steeped as long as the barley, the
onts taking about forty five hours, as against seventy two hours for the barley.
We need not enter into the minutiae of the brewing of oat malt pale ale, as the
instructions we have previously given are sufficient to enable anyone acquainted
with the art of brewing to manufacture the kind of pale ale specified.
