No beer and no TV make Atticus something something.
I don't understand how there could be any dispute about this. American pilsners suck. American regional pilsners suck worse, but you feel a glow of blue-collar pride when you drink them (think Lucky Lager and Falstaff, or Pabst, for that matter). Regional microbrews are novelty beers, and for them we are very grateful.
But for stout, there is Guinness; for brown ale, there is Newcastle; for lager, there is Spaten; for pilsner, there is Urquell. God has ordained it.
