I enjoy a Newkie Brown as much as the next guy with a serious drinking problem, but to hold it up as the standard bearer of brown ales does not seem right. It is an insult to Sam Smith's Nut Brown Ale.
But, perhaps you are saying this to exhibit a new faux-working class Atticus in a devious attempt to raise Paigow's ire.
Or perhaps I have read you wrong all this time, and you are much more of a pint-swilling soccer hooligan type than a tuxedo-sporting dandy.
I suppose it is possible I will never know which is right. But that's O.K. - it is all just part of the magical mystery tour of internet chat boards. Carry on, Brother Atticus!
