Bees is an American Wild Ale crafted with a grist bill that highlights locally-malted Triticale, Wheat, and C-60 from our friends at Valley Malt. Aged for six weeks in stainless on local raw wildflower honey and our native New England mixed culture, Bees was then transferred to the bottle where it further conditioned for many months.
A beautiful display of local agriculture and native yeast, Bees presents a brilliant straw yellow with a visible effervescence. The nose is delightful, offering a mingling array of aromas ranging from Meyer lemon and white grapefruit to earthy lemongrass and a floral honey character. An ode to the tiny, buzzing pollinators that contribute so much to New England's ecology, Bees finishes pleasantly dry with a well-balanced acidity.
