This ale suffered a life of anonymity for over five years, until one afternoon in early spring two fly fishermen sat on the banks of a crystal-clear, spring-fed stream in Central Wisconsin, celebrating a banner day of fishing with a bottle of homebrew. From that day forward the ale was fondly named after the river where watercress still sways in the gentle current.
