Born To Bee

Wild Honey Wheat Ale

We pride ourselves on making some pretty crazy beers. This time, we outdid ourselves. This one of a kind wheat begins with a batch of our flagship Beekeeper Honey Wheat. All similarity ends there. Tucked safely in the fermenter, the magic begins.

This beer was fermented using wild yeast extracted from the wing of a bumble bee. A proprietary yeast developed by John Sheppard for NC State University, this yeast produces Lactic acid, lowering the pH to make it nice and tart. The insanity doesn’t stop there. Notes of honey and melon linger on the palate, providing the balance and depth that make this untamed brew something truly special.
