Established in 2010, Blue Bee is a small, independently-owned 10-barrel brewery known for producing quality cask ales, with regular distribution across Sheffield and beyond—especially throughout Yorkshire and the East Midlands.
Although one of the smaller breweries in the city, it has a strong local presence, particularly at the renowned Kelham Island Tavern, which shares the same ownership.
Blue Bee is known for its ever-changing specials and frequent collaborations with like-minded breweries.
Their beers often showcase New World hops, with an IPA always available—including the long-running and evolving American 5 Hop Pale Ale, now in its 75th incarnation.
