THE " APPS" BREWERY , LITTLEHAM BEDEFORD , NORTH DEVON . ' "APPS" ALE— "APPS" PALE ALE . The peculiar excellence of these Ales ( independently of being , as says the Lancet in July , 1854 , " clear , sparkfino and well brewed" ) is derived from the presence iu tho " Apps Speing" from which they are brewed of the finest Saline and Tonic matter in singular combination . The well-known Chemist , Herapath , in a letter to tho Rev . J . L . Harding ( owner of the Apps" Estate ) , writes a& follows : — " Bristol , 1858 " Sir , —I take it for granted you have received my report in which I have stated your Spring to be a good brewing water , with Tonic and other properties , &c ., &c . B " WILLIAM HERAPATH , F . O . S . " The same great authority bears evidence to the puritv and excellence of the Ale : — " Bristol , 1864 . " To the Proprietor of the ' Apps' Brewery . " Sir , —I have examined and analysed four specimens of your Beer oj various strengths ; I find them clear , sound , and well brewed , &c ., &c . I have no doubt your Beers will become popular . "WILLIAM HERAPATH , F . C . S . " The celebrated Dr .
