Brakspear Seasonal Ale programme 2004

Brakspear create a buzz with Bee Sting

To mark the approach of Summer, Bee Sting 4.7% abv will be Brakspear Brewing Co.’s seasonal cask ale offering during May and June.

Brewed using Cara malt, blended with malted wheat and pinhead oats, this is a delicate, crisp, amber-bodied summertime brew, combined with rich Oxfordshire honey and 100% English Fuggles hops.

Jeremy Moss, Head Brewer commented:

“The Fuggles hops are perfect for Bee Sting, their sensuous, earthy qualities acting as a wonderful foil for the sweetness and subtlety of the local honey.

“It really is the Bees’ Knees.”
