Rural Beekeeping Craft Beer Experience
About the experience
On this experience day in Sussex, it's all about the bees and the honey brews amid the Great British countryside. You'll discover how to keep bees and how to use honey to make scrumptious craft beers. There isn't a sweeter combination in our minds!
