Heed the bee and this queen will lead you to the gods. Our nectar, imbued with the sweet taste of Michigan wild flower honey, fermented, and then aged in custom oak, will transport you to a place only the ancient Greeks have known. Let the complex subtleties of our traditional honey wine bathe your senses in the honorable intentions of the Bee.

On tap at Arktos, pours a clear golden, no head. Aroma brings out lots of wildflower honey with some oxidation. Flavour is intensely sweet, with lots of wildflower honey, gentle booze, and floral notes. Really nice honey character here. Very sweet but not cloying. Beautiful slow sipper.
