Which Minecraft do you have?

Every version of the game needs its own build. Pick yours, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game. This mod is built for Fabric only.

⬇ Download for 1.18.2⬇ Download for 1.16.2–1.16.4
I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.

Features:

Liquid Honey

This golden goodness always tasted great, and now you can swim in it too! Better Bees adds a fluid block for honey, as well as a bucket to hold it with. 

The crafting recipe is simple, and you can put the items in any order:

Now you can have a pool party with your buzzy friends!

Beeswax

Shearing hives full of honey will normally give you Honeycomb, but now also gives flakes of Beeswax!

Wax can be compressed into Compressed Wax, or made into a block.

Other uses for Beeswax are coming in the future, such as candles.

 

Bee Stingers

Bees can now drop their stingers, which can be used as a primitive weapon (along with an advancement!)

New Hive Types

Bee Hives can now be made of any wood type! The vanilla one is the Oak Beehive. If you have another mod installed that adds a new wood type, chances are it also has a beehive.

Bee Hives can be upgraded to Apiaries, which can hold twice as many Bees as a wooden Hive, and twice as much Honey!
