Make every day World Bee Day with this honey-infused pale ale. The majority of the micronutrient-rich food we eat depends on these fuzzy little creatures' well-bee-ing. That's why we're donating a portion of the proceeds from each sold can, keg and cask of Plan Bee to The World Bee Project. This beer pays homage to the honey which gives a delicate sweetness to balance out the gentle bitterness in the beautifully nuanced pale ale.

Tap at FOB, Rimini, Italy. Pours pale gold, transparent, with fine white foam. Aroma is weak floral. Body is average, with moderate carbonation. Taste is moderately sweet, balanced by some bitterness. A little honey can be felt in the beginning. Final is average.

Golden colour, small white head. Dry, honey aroma. Light-bodied. Fizzy, pale malts, evident honey flavour but not much sweetness. Tolerable.

Can. High Peak Wine and Beer. Mostly clear pale gold. Decent Buxton swede. Nose has light sweet malt. Whiff of flora. Some notes of honey. Taste is fairly sweet first up with a hefty bosh of quite rough bitterness. Drinks decent enough overall. Feels a bit heavy somehow. Lingering bitterness to finish. Ok.
