I would love to have bees one day too. I hope too. I remember seeing hives that could release some of the honey without being opened up. Maybe they are called flow hives? I can't recall.
Basically, my personal opinion is that it would be great to keep bees as long as there is a way to do so that does not exploit the bees.
I think there is quite a skill to it, so good luck and please do share your progress with us :-)
