Story: Chew Chong of Canton, knew nothing of Saison. What he did know, however, was how to make a buck, specifically with fungus and milk. He initially made his fortune extracting fungus from decaying Taranaki native trees and exporting them back to China as a delicacy. Then, from his dairy factory in Eltham, he was the bright spark who created the famous pound of butter. We've brewed his Belgian style Saison "farmhouse ale" in his honour, using traditional Belgian "fungus" (otherwise known as yeast) while nodding to his Kiwi heritage with a hint of Kawakawa and Horopito.
Brewers Notes: Saison is traditionally untraditional, a kitchen sink beer that has no real style parameters; rather a beer brewed with whatever materials was on hand to farmers and brewers alike. Brewed to be a sessionable and refreshing ale, this Saison uses a particular belgian yeast to give soft clove and bubblegum notes. We’ve added a hint of Kawakawa and Horopito to give a spicy complexity and fermented the beer as dry as possible. This beer is refreshing and light, and goes amazingly with fish dishes, and sharp cheeses.

My colleague loves, among others, Hazy Ales. As his farewell gift I decided to buy, online, a selection of beers from the Beer Library.
Online purchasing was a breeze with the ability to select products by style with current stock levels and quantity of purchase options in some cases.
I was emailed that the collection of my dozen or so beers was available after only a couple of hours. All were chilled when collected.
All in all a great experience for online purchase and collection
