Hive: Post Brood Blend #11

An ongoing collaboration with our friends and honey superstars Tim and Emma from Malfroy's Gold Wild Honey.

An ongoing collaboration with our friends and honey superstars Tim and Emma from Malfory's Gold honey, Hive: Post Brood is a barrel aged golden mixed culture ale refermented with natural formed Warré hive post-brood wild comb from the Blue Mountains and Central Tablelands of NSW.  Each bottle is dipped in the same wax post-refermentation in this beer, there may be small residue still of propolis in the wax leaving black specks in the golden yellow beeswax.   

Tasting notes: Familiar Blue Mountains polyflora aromas of pine needles and fresh resin with pollen high notes. This blend smells super fresh, akin to when we receive the honeywax and first open the pail… with the stickier, darker notes there but accentuated by lighter more floral overtones. The palate is dry and moreish. A full body for this blend not showcasing a large acid profile, instead a long finish with the Hive trademark apparent sweetness. Bottled in July 2024 and conditioned for 9 months before release.

120 bottles available online - limit 6 per person.
