AS TO GOOD REEK Virtues of Barley as Agatoai Corn Beer. August Bus eh, Vlee President of the An heuM-r-Uosch Brewing Association Inter viewed. Effort to Mauufarinrr Cheap Beer and Its Results. BEER CONSUMERS AND THEIR RIGHTS. From Bt. Louie Su'utay Mirror, Dea A. An editorial In the Sunday Mirror of last week on the subject of “Beer Culture" at tracted a great deal of attentlen by reaaoa of the statement made therein that there are su perior and Inferior art isles of beer selling to consumers at the same prioe per glass. There was ne intention in tb - article to do any injury to ary brewery interest, but to isferm ths reader that be should insist na having ths best beer for his money and not accept the inferior. Superior beer is made of barley malt. Bar ley malt is expensive, and the beer made from it is made by superior processes. The oommon beer is made of ooru and barley malt. In about equal proportions, but the barley malt is not necessarily of fine quality and it is brewed cheaply, Mr. August A. Busch of the Anheuser-Busch Brewing Association, speaking on the subject of suierior and inferior beers, said to a repre sentative of the Sunday Mirror yesterday: “I have no desire to say anything for or agaiust beer manufactured by other brewers. Your paper is adopting the right course, how ever, in endeavoring to educate the people on the subject of super! nr and inferior beers. But as far as the Anheuser-Busch brewery is con cerned we are out of competition.” “Did you use corn in the brewing of the An heuser Busch beers?” “Corn, orcom prsparatlons, used bv so many breweries, nsvar enter the gates of the An houser-Busch Brewing Association. Th" secret of ths susses of our beer is due to the fact that we use nothing but the finest malt and the choicest hops and tilAw Die beef to thoroughly mature before R enters into consumption. Hence our beer is not only the beet and the healthiest beverage, but also the highest-priced beer offer to the public. Beer mode of corn and of corn preparations Is naturally cheap, and the quality is aeap accordingly ” ‘‘How is the public to know which Is the pure beer and which is noil" *‘l do net care to say any thing about any other beer than that of the An.isuser-nuacu brewing Association. I simply say that we use only the best barley malt and tne choicest of every thing. Tne motto of the Anheuser-Busoh Brew ing Association is: ‘The best is not too good.’ "Beer made from oarley malt is, of course, more nutritious and wholesome than that made from corn and corn preparations. ’lf you want to know what is good beer and what is not you have only to ask which boer costa the dealer the must aad whioh cost* the least. The association of which lam vice pi eslHeat has made it a study to produce the purest and finest beer Mat. can be made, and we have setabiahed a reputation which shows that we have succeeded. Yon will never make a mistake by buying this beer. It is in foreign countries ths raost serious rival to the celebrated Bass’ ala of England. It has nearly excluded it from the United States. Every man who keeps a table of which he Is proud feels that it is not complete without one of our brands of bear. This is one of our highest objects—to make the Anbbuser Rusch beer the table drink of the world.” There is ne deal™ to raise an agitation on the question ef beer adulteration, and it Is not in tended te be inferred that beers not mode from barley malt are adulterated. The point made is that they are cheap and of lower grade than the other. So little la known by beer oou sumera of what they are given in beer to drink that the time for a popular education os to the ingredients of various beers has arrived. As the best beer can he bought at the same price per glass as the purest beer, the consumer should know which is the highest grrade The effort to make money out of the manufacture of beer by those who are not concerned in establishing a reputation or producing an article of beer couoedediv fine, or in the cultivation of a per fect beer, should be looked on with suspicion by the beer consumer, who has the right to demand of all brewers beer as good as the best. Beer-drinking people should know that corn beer is a cheap and inferior article and that barley malt Mer is find, Wholesome and higher ' priced.
