These are a few of the taps at Dr. Rudi’s rooftop bar in Auckland, a busy place with plenty of outdoor space and views of Viaduct Harbour.
But what made the spot special for me is the Wi-Fi password: smoothcone.
That’s because Dr. Rudi is a hop first released in 1976 and called Super Alpha. Her name was changed to Dr. Rudi in 2012.
Smooth Cone is her mother.
