Beer as a temperance issue cited by Dr Delbruck
Dr Delbruck of Bramen Germany argues beer is not a temperance drink or substitute for spirits. He notes in a North German private asylum for drunkards 41 were alcoholized by spirits 38 by wine and 98 by beer. He adds heavy beer drinking can absorb large amounts of alcohol and cites Sandusky Ohio wagon drivers who asked for two and a half gallons of beer daily, equating to about two cups of alcohol.
