Minecraft wiki entry for Achievement_guide, associated text: First, you need to have a Bee Nest or Beehive you want to collect a Honey Bottle from. It only gives you the achievement if you collect a honey bottle and not Honeycomb. Next you need to place a Campfire under the beehive. Note that if you try to harvest any kind of honey from a beehive without placing a campfire underneath it, the Bees will get angry. They will come out and sting you, which will hurt you, inflict you with Poison and kill the bees in about a minute. You will not get the achievement. Try to place the campfire a few blocks below the hive, otherwise the bees may injure themselves coming out. Remember that campfires will break and only give you Charcoal if you try to pick them up without Silk Touch. After you have "smoked" the hive like this, use a Glass Bottle on the hive to collect a honey bottle. You should then get the achievement.
