About Beerituality:

In the town of Brewster, few places are as popular as the Abbey Normal beer bar--at least until the country's most infamous anti-alcohol zealots, Reverend Jimmy Patrick arrives. The prohibitionist preacher maneuvers his way into the mayor's chair and wastes no time in launching a referendum to ban all alcohol. The charismatic holy roller manages to eke out narrow passage of the referendum, thus putting Abbey Normal out of business. However, the pub's owners find a loophole in the local ordinance--a special allowance for alcohol served during religious services--and cleverly transform the bar into St. Abbey the Normal, The Church of Beer.
