IN TEXAS.. near Galveston, Confederate General J. B.
Magruder piled cotton bales on the decks of little river boats.
These famous "cotton clads," manned by the 26th Texas
Cavalry, trounced the Federal war fleet then
holding Texas' largest port. As the war ships
hastily departed, the event was toasted in good
Texas-brewed beer.
For then, as now, beer was the traditional bev-
erage of moderation—light, sparkling refresh-
ment that adds a touch of Southwestern
hospitality to any occasion. Texans have
always enjoyed the good fellowship that goes
with every glass.
TODAY, in its centennial year, the United States
Brewers Association still works constantly to
assure maintenance of high standards of quality
and propriety wherever beer and ale are served.
