The cause was tried on the following agreed statement of facts:
“The defendant did have in his possession, on March 16, 1921, in Albany, Morgan county, Ala., for the purpose of sale, and did sell, a beverage. Such beverage looks like, tastes like, smells like, foams like, and is made as a substitute for, beer. Said beverage is a cereal beverage, and contains less than one-half of 1 per cent, alcohol.
