Potion of Bees
by Commoble
Potion of Bees lets players brew potions that release swarms of bees when thrown, using honeycomb and an awkward potion base on a brewing stand.
What it does
Brewing a potion with an awkward potion base and honeycomb produces a bee potion. Adding gunpowder turns it into a splash potion, and dragon's breath turns it into a lingering potion. Each form is then thrown to release a swarm of bees that attack nearby creatures.
Potion of Bees is a Forge and NeoForge mod for 1.20.1, and it has to run on both the client and the server. It is released under the MIT License and is open source, with the source code and an issue tracker public.
Key features
Bee potions
A brewing stand with honeycomb and an awkward potion base creates a potion that summons bees when used.
Splash and lingering forms
Adding gunpowder makes a splash version, and dragon's breath makes a lingering version that keeps the swarm active longer.
Angry swarms
Thrown bee potions release bees that turn on nearby mobs, so the effect works as a ranged attack.

What the author says
Potion of bees can be brewed at the brewing stand via an awkward potion and a honeycomb block, and can be further brewed with gunpowder to make Splash Potions of Bees, or with dragon's breath to make Lingering Potions of Bees. Throw Splash Potions of Bees at things to release a swarm of angry bees.
