Geocache Description:

One of a series of 5 caches plus a bonus cache published to coincide with Event Cache GC424MR "BBH#61 - SnAlbanz!!".

St. Albans is the home to my favourite not-for profit organisation. To celebrate the work this fine body undertakes this series is placed near places that serve real ale.

The event and the 5 caches have bonus numbers marked on the log books. If you collect all 6 it will help you to solve the coordinates for the bonus cache, “Keeping It Real” (GC41CA1)

This is a puzzle cache. The cache is not at the listed co-ordinates. In order to find it you have to work out the following clues. The cache container can then be found at N 51° 44.ABC W 000° 20.DEF

A = How many letters are in the Latin species name of the European Honey Bee?
B = The number of letters in the Christian name of the inventor of the Langstroth Hive
C = How many legs do Bees have?

D = There are 3 Honey bee castes but how many of them have a barbed stinger?
E = Honeycomb consists of cells with a regular number of sides. Take one away from this number.
F = How many letters are there in the genus of the European Honey Bee ?
