DUKE25 HOPS | Premium Canadian Craft Hops — Québec, B.C.🇨🇦 & New Zealand 🇳🇿
Built by a brewer. Grown in Canada. Fresh off the bine.
Who We Are
Duke25 Hops Inc. is a proudly Canadian-owned hop supplier founded by ex-brewer Phyl La Ferrière (Propeller Brewing Co., Garrison Brewing Co., Rockbottom Brewpub). With over 20 years of professional brewing experience, Phyl didn't just decide to sell hops — he spent decades brewing with them, chasing the perfect dry-hop rate, dialing in alpha acids, and demanding the same freshness and consistency from his suppliers that he now guarantees to you.
We partner with Houblon DLL, CWG Farm, a newly established 40,000-plant hop farm in British Columbia, Canada, and a sister farm in Nelson, New Zealand — giving Canadian brewers exclusive access to world-class hops from both hemispheres, all year long.
🇨🇦 Canadian-owned. Canadian-grown. No border. No duties. No USD pricing.
Why Serious Brewers Choose Duke25
🍺 You're Talking to a Brewer. Not Just a Seller.
When you reach out to Duke25, you're speaking directly with Phyl — a founder who has personally stood at the kettle, built recipes from the ground up, and used these exact hops professionally for over two decades. He doesn't just know the spec sheet. He knows what these hops do in your beer — how they behave at flameout, how they perform in a dry-hop, and what they bring to your finished pint. That level of expertise doesn't exist on an order form. It comes from years of real brewing — and it's working for you on every single order.
🇨🇦 Keep It Canadian. Keep It Simple.
No currency conversions. No customs paperwork. No cross-border delays. When you source from Duke25, your hops ship domestically — faster, cheaper, and with zero import headaches. Every dollar you spend stays in the Canadian craft brewing economy.
⚡ Flexible Where Others Won't Be
Need a small trial order for an R&D batch? A mixed variety shipment? A custom quantity that doesn't fit a standard SKU? Duke25 says yes where large suppliers say no. We're built for the way craft brewers actually work — agile, creative, and always chasing the next great beer.
🌱 A Canadian Origin Story Your Customers Will Respect
Québec-grown. B.C.-expanded. Nelson, NZ-connected. Today's craft beer drinkers care deeply about provenance — and so do the brewers who serve them. Duke25 gives you a local sourcing story with real roots, real farms, and real people behind every bag.
🌍 Fresh Off the Bine. Even When Nobody Else Has It.
Our sister farm in Nelson, New Zealand harvests in March/April — the exact opposite of the North American season. So while other Canadian suppliers are deep into last season's inventory, Duke25 customers are receiving fresh New Zealand cultivars, straight off the bine. Brighter aromatics. Livelier oils. Better beer — at the time of year when your competitors are working with what's left.

The Best Outcome for Your Hoppy Beer and More!
Our Roots. Our Farms. Our Passion.
Twelve seasons in the ground. One obsession: growing Canada's finest hops.
A Family Passion Since 2013
We didn't start with a warehouse and a catalogue. We started with dirt under our fingernails.
In 2013 we planted our very first hop rhizomes in St-Édouard, near Québec City — and watched three years of patience and hard work become our first harvest in 2016. Twelve seasons later, we farm 30,000 plants across 30 acres of prime Québec agricultural land, and we're just getting started.
Today, through our 40,000-plant British Columbia partnership, our sister farm in Nelson, New Zealand, and our Québec home base, Duke25 has access to over 70,000 premium hop plants across two hemispheres — one of the largest independently-owned hop growing networks ever assembled under a Canadian flag.
Canada Is Back. And It Started Here.
There's a history that most brewers don't know — and it begins right here in northeastern North America.
In the 19th century, this region was the hop capital of the world. Québec, Ontario, and the northeastern United States were the beating heart of global hop production — supplying breweries across continents with some of the finest cultivars ever grown. Then came disease, prohibition, and economics. The industry collapsed. For over a century, Canada went quiet.
Duke25 is changing that.
We are proud to be at the forefront of bringing ultra-premium, craft-quality Canadian hops back to brewers for the first time since that golden era. The terroir is still here. The climate is still ideal. The passion never left. We're simply picking up where our ancestors left off — with modern farming, world-class processing, and an uncompromising commitment to quality that would make those 19th century growers proud.
The hop renaissance in Canada didn't start somewhere else. It started in Québec.
Grown in Canada's Ideal Hop Climates
Our Québec fields sit in Zone 4 and Zone 5 — agricultural climates purpose-built for hop cultivation. The conditions here push plants to full maturity naturally, producing dense, resinous cones with elevated alpha acids and the kind of aromatic complexity that shows up in your finished beer.
Our fields are built on a traditional trellis system — deep-anchored poles, top cables spanning wide rows, and two climbing strings per plant tied securely from crown to cable. Every bine is guided for optimal growth, maximum cone development, and consistent yield season after season.
This isn't factory farming. Every plant is tended with the care that only a family operation delivers.
Two Hemispheres. One Standard of Excellence.
Our sister farm in Nelson, New Zealand harvests in March/April — when North American fields are still months away from peak season. While other suppliers are deep into last season's inventory, Duke25 customers are receiving fresh cultivars straight off the bine from the Southern Hemisphere. Brighter aromatics. Livelier oils. Better beer — year-round, without compromise.
Nelson, New Zealand is globally recognized as one of the premier hop-growing regions on earth. We're proud to call it part of the Duke25 family.
75+ Cultivars. Every Style. Every Vision.
From delicate aromatics to powerhouse bittering varieties, Duke25 carries over 75 hop cultivars — one of the broadest selections available from a Canadian-owned supplier:
- 🍋 Tropical & Fruit-forward IPAs
- 💨 DDH IPAs & Double IPAs
- 🌫️ New-school Hazy & New England styles
- 🌾 Traditional Ales & Lagers
- 🧪 Experimental & boundary-pushing brews
Whatever you're brewing — we have the hop for it.
From Field to Pellet. Total Transparency.
