Description
Blue Bee Brewery is an independent brewery in the heart of the valley of beer in Sheffield, England.

Blue Bee was set up in 2010 by Richard Hough, former head brewer at Abbeydale, who has also done stints at Acorn, Crown, Spire, Raw and Marble. Starting his own brewery allows him to use this invaluable experience on his own terms, creating beers that are noted for “quality, consistency and with a slight addiction factor”. In 2014 the business was acquired by Reet Ale Pubs, which runs three pubs in Sheffield.

2026 Skipton Beer Festival #9. Very dark, not quite black. Has lots of strength but its roasted notes are not missing here, I just wish it wasn't 25 degrees at this festival otherwise it might be a more enjoyable stronger orderable stout than today's weather warrants.

Cask at the Pup and Duckling, Solihull. Poured a clear yellow golden colour with a lasting frothy white head. The aroma is grassy, nettle hops. The flavour is moderate bitter, with a smooth, fresh, grassy, piney, light citrus, dry hop bitter palate and a long bitter finish. Medium bodied with soft carbonation.

Hand pulled half pint at the Wrekin Inn on 12th March 2026. Bright light golden body, white crown. Citrus leanings with a hedgerow berry side line. Not too sure I've had a Karma hoped beer before.

Cask at the Kelham Island Tavern, Sheffield on 6th March 2026. Pale gold with white foam and traveling lace. Sweet fruits and malts in aroma. Rich nutty maltiness and citrus peel in-mouth, and a bittersweet finish. Engaging mouthfeel and plenty of body.

Handpull cask at the Gryphon, Bristol. Dark brown and a little translucent. Uneven beige/khaki head. Malty aroma, light liquorice and blackberry. Sweet taste with a sourness on the comedown. Horehound in the aftertaste. The oddness makes it less enjoyable but its OK all in all.
