Helllo,
With all the recent talk/banter about our beers, Why not do a swap inspired by our favourite drops 
Surely our passion for a drink can morph into some pretty interesting patterns. So sit back open a cold one have a sniff and a swig, and tie around what you taste, smell and feel 
Then send in with a description of the pattern and the beer it was founded on.
Any Takers? looking for 10-15max
Due date: 30/4/2012
I will be Swap B$&*h unless someone else really wants to.
Cheers

Count me in Matty. Tying the fly will be the easy bit. Deciding on which is my favourite beer will be the hard bit. So many great NZ beers!!!
Have to say since moving from Australia, iv discovered that Kiwis brew far superior beers. Even the cheaply beers here are pretty good, as opposed to the disgusting swill that cheap Aussie beers are (VB, Fosters etc..).
Maybe Chris will have to take me on a tasting mission over to Wanaka to sample the delights of Beerworks first before making my decision?

My favourite beer over here on the West Island is Pure Blonde.
It could be a nostalgia thing given that I've reached that stage in life where I am too old, too fat and too ugly to have any chance at all even with impure blondes.
So following this trail of twisted logic, I'll jump in and tie a Blonde Wulff.

Seeking fly tying inspiration from ones favourite brew, gotta love that. Can I play too, this could be comical.

I'm in if you'll have me.
Could end up with a bunch or RFUs though - depends on how much beer is being consumed by the tiers...
I'm going to have to think about this one - so many "favourite" beers!

Hmmm. Ok bit of a slow start, but that's ok
Come on guys if you have read this, sign on up. It should be fun, what's to loose, you get to tie some flies and drink some beers.
