| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jan 31, 2009 12 oz. bottle pours a cloudy, bright copper color with tight white head that melts away quickly. Aroma is of light grass and malt. Front palate is malt with a middle of toasty grains and finishes up with hoppy lemon flavor. Relatively light and drinkable, but just mediocre. I don’t know what I was expecting, but I think the only reason I’d seek it out again would be for a Hawaiian-themed party. Ubermunch (23), Maryland, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jan 29, 2009 Surprisingly nice... A solid PA that pours well but lacks a bit on aroma. A little citrus and a bit of an aftertaste that’s not unpleasant. I’d pick this up again especially to surprise friends who might not believe that Hawaii can put out this good an ale. imadeadguy (378), back in NJ!, New Jersey, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jan 27, 2009 Right from the bottle. This is one of my favorite everyday beers. Nice citrus and piney hops with a full finish. Crisp and wonderful. This one is really underrated. auderale (572), Fairchild AFB, Washington, USA
