What a robust, red-cheeked, sturdy lot they'd be! Remember, Shakespeare tells us that "Good digestion waits on appetite, and health on b6th." r4 Beer-drinkers are those who accomplish things, because good digestion and sound, healthful sleep furnish energy to do wonders. No purer beer is possible. GAMBRINUS is made with the .. utmost care, and the result is the most healthful and pleasant tasting table beer to be had. 1 The best hops obtainable, the richest malt, the purest. of water (from .a well of great depth on our own premises) and the highest skill in brewing combine to produce this perfect brew. Then we always age GAMBRINUS thoroughly and it never causes bil iousness or tastes sharp and bjtter. r - Phone the Brewery, tell us where you live, and whether you want pint or quart bottles. Well see that you're supplied with the beer that has been for over thirty-one years "the favorite family beer of Portland.
