Appellant was charged with selling a bottle of intoxicating liquor, to wit: a bottle of beer, to one D. J. Wood.
Wood testified that he bought a bottle of Schlitz beer from appellant, and that it tasted like all other, intoxicating beer that he had ever drank, and that it was Schlitz beer and intoxicating. P. I. Wood testified that he was clerking at the Marsdcn lino joint, and that lie was familiar with the taste of uno and the taste of beer; that they tasted almost alike, and that he did not believe he could tell the difference in the taste of the two malt liquors, and that he had been in the saloon business about nine years. He further testified that the effect of uno and beer upon the drinker is different, hut the taste is not; that a party can drink'a great number of bottles of uno without feeling it; but three or four bottles of Schlitz beer is about all that he could drink without becoming intoxicated.
The first ground of the motion for a new trial urges error in the court’s charge to the effect that if the jury should find that defendant sold the witness Wood a bottle of beer, and they should further believe that same was intoxicating, they would find him guilty. The objection to this charge is that it was not authorized by the testimony, We do not believe this contention is correct. The witness expressly *466testifies that it was Schlitz beer he purchased and it was intoxicating. This also disposes of the second ground of the motion for a new trial, which was that the evidence does not support the conviction. We are of opinion that Wood's testimony did justify the jury in believing the beer was intoxicating.
The judgment is affirmed.
Affirmed.
