INSTRUCTIONS
The stalks, green as they were, as soon as pulled up, were carried to
a convenient trough, then chopped and pounded so much, that, by
boiling, all the juice could be extracted out of them; which juice
every planter almost knows is of saccharine a quality almost as any
thing can be, and that any thing of a luxuriant corn stalk is very
full of it, ... After this pounding, the stalks and all were put
into a large copper, there lowered down it its sweetness with
water, to an equality with common observations in malt wort, and
then boiled, till the liquor in a glass is seen to break, as the
breweres term it; after that it is strained, and boiled again with
hops. The beer I drank had been made above twenty days, and bottled
off about four days. Published in the Virginia Gazette on Feb. 14,
