    Basically, it be hard to find shit on proletarian novels in the US. Especially hard to find shit that the teacher didn't already assign.

    How about EVERY novel written in the US from 1918-1941?

    I didn't say it was hard to find novels, now did I?

    Then read criticism on the novels, and use the bibliographies from those books.

    The only thing that will get me drinking lager is the fact that it's cheaper to get a pint of Fosters in college than it is to get a small bottle of coke.

    I started on Guiness as the first beer I could drink. Slowly moved on to some of the local stuff and really have been pretty picky since then. When in Japan, out with the teachers I would drink the Japanese stuff as little as possible and move to sake when I could. Out with friends usually was a at a bar I could get Kilkenny so I usually stuck to that since their Guiness was meh. They had a bunch of Belgium beer but I always found it way to sweet for my liking. I sometimes would have a Sam Adams but it was way to bitter there compared to the version I would find here in the states and had none of their awesome seasonal brews.

    That would make me sad, because it would mean I'd have to let go of my favourite one liner about how awful Guiness is.

    A keg.

    The problem is not draught versus can, it's Boddingtons.

    I like Boddingtons at times. Though the beer I drank the most of the last time I was in England was either something with a lot of xs I think XXX and a year like 1554 or something. I get confused on the last one because a local brewery makes a beer here called 1664 which is a dark Belgium beer.

    If you want to pursue this path, I shall deploy a variety of techniques, including a Wittgensteinian critique of understanding as "playing vs. having," a heideggerian critique of understanding as being-towards, and a Derridean critique of intentionality.

    But that would be annoying. I would just say that, in fact, they do no understand eachother and are merely speaking in circles.

    The cheap staff bar we go to fairly often has recently put in a tap for Gem (which is a local Bath Ales beer). This is most pleasing, as it's rapidly getting a bit cold to be drinking Grolsch.

    Green Abbott stuff is good. Black Sheep also. London Pride brewery produces some alright stuff.

    There's also some interesting bottled ales from Orkney and a few other Scottish breweries are bringing out some good stuff.

    There's XXXX, which I think is a fake Australian beer. It's dirt cheap but actually quite nice somehow. I know it's likely just a conditioned taste I've developed from my poor student days.

    And then there's Kronenbourg 1664, which is from the German bit of France. And isn't bad, about on a par with Stella. So it's lager, but it's a decent one you're likely to find in a pub.

    "Real Ale", which is a term I do not feel qualified to explain. They are highly regional though.
