Enter the Portal Fresh Hop Rakau IPA

We teamed up with James from Verdant Brewing in the UK and Brent from Mac Hops in Motueka to come up with something pretty special...

A delicious IPA, fresh hopped with Rakau hops from just down the road and fermented with Verdant’s very own yeast. Stone fruit comes through on the nose and palate, combining with a touch of bitterness and oiliness from the juicy fresh hops. Taaasty as.
