Chatham Islands' only brewer

From Summer Times, 9:20 am on 19 January 2023

Chatham Islands fresh seafood and pristine honey have a reputation for unbeatable quality, but those lucky enough to visit are also getting a chance to sample locally brewed beer. Simone Croon started Breezy Brewery - the Island's only locally-brewed drop - just before the Covid pandemic. Simone tells Anna how she got into beer making, and what life has been like on the Islands this summer.
