Pip stole some of it to give to the convict (after he was threatened by the convict to bring him a file and some "wittles", which is food) so he had to make it not seem like there was some brandy missing. He filled it with tar water.

Uncle Pumblechook is unable to drink the brandy because he accidentally swallows a nutcracker while trying to take a sip, causing him to choke and gag. This humorous incident adds comedic relief to the novel and highlights Uncle Pumblechook's clumsy and awkward character.
