WhenThis Was New York the first Step Was Taken In the Present Day Schlitz Process MORE than 260 years of science are in Schlitz. Ex periments in over a thousand laboratories guar antee its purity. In these days of "steeple chase" drinks, which are little more than experiments in velocity, Schlitz aging possesses great significance. Schlitz concludes the process of fermentation in the brewery. Fermentation is the work of living organisms. But these organisms alive in your stomach will cause biliousness, flatulence, and a host of other ills. Schlitz is thorougnly aged, fermented. Then it is sterilized by Pasteur's process through which no organism can live. These processes cannot be accomplished without time. It takes months to create Schlitz. During these months the brew is' made according to the latest dictates of science, based on discoveries dating back 260 years to Leeuwenhoek, the Hollander, who first used the micro scope for examination of fermentation organisms. After all this care in brewing, Schlitz is filtered through white wood pulp, put into sterilized bottles of Brown Glass to protect it from all possibility of deterioration.
