Description
At Plan Bee Farm Brewery our mission is to brew 100% New York State ingredient beer. We source all our ingredients from the state of New York with many grown on site. Our beers go from ground to glass within measurable feet of their origins. Our goal is to work with local businesses to produce a delicious product for the community we serve.
At Plan Bee Farm Brewery, our beers are created by the limitation of local resources. From the yeast we cultivate from our honey comb, to the grain and hops in our fields, if it isn’t in our community it doesn’t enter our beer.
Today, brewers talk about ‘local’ craft beer while sourcing ingredients from around the world. At Plan Bee Farm Brewery, we define ‘local’ as that which grows in New York State, if not on our farm. Over the course of the next few years we will work tirelessly to reduce the radius of our sourced ingredients. The goal is to be able to say, “I planted & processed everything in this beer personally.”

750 ml bottle at Ginger Man. Clear gold with a small head and some light, spotty lacework. Aroma is pear/apple skins, funky yeast, oak, and a bit of grain. Nice flavor mix that is fruit forward, tart, funky and a bit sour. Good mouthfeel as well. Soft, clean, and with a funky, tart close. Liked this a lot.

750 ml bottle at Ginger Man, split with jcos. Hazy white-gold color with a sheeting, frothy head and some nice, drippy lacing. Really bright and funky, floral, a little hoppy. Great mouthfeel. Super clean, bright, yeasty. Really quite good.

Poured from a 750 ml bottle. Aroma is bright and fruity with light citrus notes as well as some pear, stone fruit and tropical fruit. Hints of melon as well. A definite quince character. Light oak and grain notes. Pours a very hazy, pale, yellow straw color with a medium large, medium thick, white head that recedes to a thin film that lingers for quite a bit. Its not chunky, but there is definite particulate matter in the beer creating a lot of hazy. Flavor has a medium light acidity with a light grain character and a bit of a sweetness. Moderately strong quince notes with a pear and citrus character. Some light pineapple, tropical fruit and stone fruit. Light oak. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a nice beer. Tons of quince character, especially in the flavor. Quince works really well with the yeast notes. Well balanced.
