Swamp Head Brewery

A light and refresing Cream Ale brewed with Tupelo Honey.

Light and refreshing, yet busting with flavor. We add Florida Tupelo Hone to a traditional cream ale, and just a touch of hops, to update this American classic. This is what a light beer should bee!

Tupelo honey is produced from the tupelo gum tree which grows profusely along the Chipola and Apalachicola rivers of northwest Florida. Here in the river swamps, bees are placed on elevated platforms along the river's edge or on floating barges; the bees fan out through the surrounding Tupelo-blossom-laden swamps during April and May and return with their precious treasure. This river valley is the only place in the world where Tupelo Honey is produced commercially.

Tupelo Honey is considered to be the finest quality honey in the world and is the only variety certified for varietal purity. It costs a bit more, but we think you will find that it produces a crisp light beer that rivals the finest lagers in the world.
