I've been bitten on one occasion.
After baiting a bee onto my hand with a drop of Newcastle brown, she slurped away at it, and soon became visibly erratic in her behavior.
The drunk been then proceeded to gnaw on one of my fingertips, eventually mining away a handful of tiny impressions, until I placed her back in front of the hive to recover from her bender.
