OBJECTS The Company has been formed to carry on the business of Brewers, Distillers, Maltsters, Wine and Spirit Merchants, Aerated Waters, Cordial and Ice Manufacturers and any other business as indicated in the Memorandum of Association, a copy of which forms part of this prospectus

PROSPECTS OF COMPANY.-The advent of a Brewery in this Colony cannot now be looked upon as an entirely new project, but in view of changed conditions, it is no exaggeration to say that a success on the lines indicated in this prospectus may now be anticipated with complete confidence. The main contributing factor is the already largely increased and rapidly growing consumption of beer as a beverage amongst all classes, particularly the Chinese people, in the Far East, giving a market for sales in China alone, which can be assuredly expected to tax

as is proposed to its capacity once the work of its establishment is reason- ably advanced. The following facts are presented for consideration:-

All materials required by the Company are duty free in Liong Kong enabling a first class beer to be placed on the market at the The machinery and plant are being lowest possible price. purchased from Messrs. Skoda Works of Pilsen Czecho-Slovakia who are among the leading manufacturers of Bretvory plant. The manufacturers have guaranteed the quality and output, and wil fumlah the services of an expert brewer.

2. The advantage enjoyed in this Colony in comparison with those countries from which our prezent supplies of Beer are imported, so far as supply and cost of labour is concerned, are manifest. 3. Climatic Conditions. One of the most successful Breweries operat-

ing in the Far East is at Manila.

4. Furthermore, as the Company requires a refrigerating plant for the Brewery, the manufacture of ice, also accommodation for cold storage will be considered, and will be easy of development as an addional source of revenue. It may be stated that a contract has already been entered into, on behalf of the Company, with the Dairy Farm Ice and Cold Storage Co., Ltd., for supply at a re- munerative price of the whole of the Company's excess production of Ice.

The exceptional increase in 1927 was due to supplemented Naval and Military forces (the "Shaforce") in Hong Kong.

0. Breweries established at Peking, Taingtao, Shanghai and Manila

are operating most successfully.

SCOPE OF ACTIVITIES—Brewery: Upon the basis of consump tion in the Colony so far as same is ascertainable, it is estimated that about 50 per cont. will bo consumed locally and the remalader will be exported. A reasonable estimate of output is 200 Hogsheads per week.

Distillery: It is also the intention of Company to erect a Distillery capable of an output of about 930,000 gallons per year of alcohol of the highest grade, for drinking purposes as well as for other uses, beth for local and export trade.

CO2 Gas:

It is proposed to purchase Liquifying Plant capable of transforming all the CO2 gas obtained by fermentation at the Brewery and Distillery into a marketable product. As this gun is a by- product of Distillerlas and Breweries the turning of it into liquid gas ta a comparatively cheap process. CO2 gas is used as a refrigerating medium, also in the manufacture of serated water and for various other purposes.

SITE AND WATER SUPPLY-It is proposed to acquire a lease of land situate on Castle Peak Road. The water supply is adequate, and is of the highest quality. The following is an extract from the certificate of the Hong Kong Government Analyst as to the suitability of the water for brewing:-

"I am of opinion, from the above results, that this water is quite suit. able for brewing of dark ales, stout and porter, and with the addition of 8 grains of magnesium sulphate per gallon, would be suitable for brew- ing of pale ales."

MANAGEMENT-A competent Brewer is available, and the executive positions in the Company will be filled by experience business and technical officers.

CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS—For the formation of the Company and for the construction of the buildings and the purchase of the necessary plant and machinory for an output of 200 Hogshends af Beer, Lager and Stout per week and 10 tons of fee per day it is estimated that the capital. required will be $500,000.00.

ESTIMATED PROFITS: It is estimated that the hett profit on the above capital outlay will amount to 24.5 per cent. per annum.

Application for sharca should be made upon the form accompanying the Prospectus and sent to the Company's Bankers together with a remit- Lanco of $2.50 per share, the amount of the deposit.

Where no allotment is made the deposit will be returned in full and where the number of shares allotted is less than the number subscribed a proportionate amount of the deposit will be returned.

Prospectuses can be inspected at and Application forms obtained from the Company's Bankers, and at and from the office of the Company at Rutton Buildings, No. 7, Daddell Street, Victoria, Hong Kong.
