Description
In 2011 Niels Schipper was a freelance photographer, i.e. underemployed.
To stave off boredom, and armed only with a few books and a slightly obsessional nature, he decided to make some beer in his laundry. Using a chilli-bin, a tea-urn, and a lot of trial and error, Niels finally emerged with a brew that was, quite simply, beautiful.
It went on to win a big New Zealand brewing prize, and next thing he's on TV and taking calls from newspapers and magazines all around the country.
Schipper's was born, and overnight Niels had become a full-time craft beer maker.
