COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
This beer is named after a fly used by fly fisherman worldwide. Its designer, world-renowned fly fisherman Francis Betters, lives here in the Adirondacks. East Kent Goldings, and Target hops balance out six varieties of English specialty malt to produce this robust, red ale. Look for notes of caramel and toffee and a biscuity malt aroma.

New England Bucket List Trip #168. Keg at the brewpub. Pours a clear amber with a large creamy off-white head. Good head retention. Aroma of caramel malt and tart fruits. The taste is toffee, caramel, raisin. Medium bodied, mild lingering bitterness.

Found some old rating notes from TapNY 2013 that somehow never got entered. (I’m keeping this a little shorter than my normal rating style to help catch-up my backlog a little faster.)
This was an alright amber beer. Nothing overly differentiating for me. Drinkable though.

On tap at the Brew Pub. Poured a transparent red color with a off-white head. Bready, malty, and roasted flavors come through with a mildly hopped bitterness in the end.

Included as part of a sampler at the restaurant. Unfortunately I do not remember the particulars on any of the beers I had tasted though they were all pretty good overall. Definitely plan to be back to retry some of these.

Bif (1743) - St. Louis, Missouri, USA - SEP 18, 2010
On tap at the Great Adirondack Steak and Seafood Co. Served an amber color with a good head that slowly faded to some lacing. Mild aroma of malt & grain. Malt with some caramel sweetness. Had a light bitter finish. Medium body & clean. Nothing fancy. Nice brew, worth a try. Really went well with my dinner.

Pours a clear amber color with no head. Aroma of caramel and toasted malts. Flavor is mostly caramel and toasted malts with a touch of hops. Decent beer though not impressive.

JoeMcPhee (9004) - Toronto, ON, Ontario, CANADA - APR 4, 2010
Tap at Pony Bar. Amber pour with a thin head. The nose is lightly caramelly and toasty with a fairly typical unassertive toastiness. There is a really unpleasant chlorine note that I can’t pin down to either the beer or the glass. Light herbal hopping with a weak dusty finish. Meh… not much to write about here.
