Fair Trade Beer

Since moving house I’ve been doing a lot of my shopping at the co-op. However as I was wandering down the aisles of our local shop today I spotted a product that I hadn’t come across before. Fairtrade Bumble Bee Honey Beer from the Freeminer Brewing Company. Having been a long standing supporter of Fairtrade I bought as many bottles as I could carry.

 

According to ratebeer.com Bumble Bee beer is, ‘Deep straw colour with a short lasting white head. Complex aroma, with clear signs of honey and malt, and some hops. Flavour is initially dominated by the honey, but this then gives way to a pleasant bitterness before leaving an aftertaste of more honey. Very nice indeed’.

 

I’m halfway through my first bottle and I have to say that I approve. What a great way to support Fairtrade!
