I had to school those guys on beer (haha, they are a bunch of truants) but in the end we settled on Big Two Hearted Ale. Very appropriate for the task at hand.

That rod is an old Constable "Dart" 5'9" for a 4-5 weight. Parabolic action, flexes right down into the butt. Nice for prospecting shady pockets on small creeks. On that water, the Yellow Breeches, I will confess that I was wishing for an 8 ft. 5 weight.
