Vera Alves

Vera Alves is a Portuguese writer living in Wānaka. She discovered she quite liked beer back in her uni days drinking cheap Sagres "imperiais" under the Lisbon sun but then moved to New Zealand, got a job and started drinking better beer (although she is, to this day, partial to a Sagres). Most of her Covid app check-ins are at breweries and she will not apologise for it.
