Draught. Clear golden color with bubbly white head. Sublte srpucy hop nose. Crisp and dry with cereal grain flavor accented by a touch of honey in the finish.

Bottle courtesy of Bockyhorsey. Bottle, pours golden. Flavor of hay, sweet malt and yeast .Light bodied that finishes spicy, skunky, and dry. Pretty average, but drinkable. I was expecting much worse coming from Hawaii

Pours like yellow gold w/ a decent head. Froth reduces quickly leaving a thin ring of lace. Aromas of malted skunk malts. Medium nectar w/ ample effers. A malty backbone supports nuances of vanilla, tropicals, all wrapped up with a nice hop bittering component. The finish is bittered nicely and leaves remnants of fruit.

From the small brewery and brewpub at Kailua-Kona comes this fresh tasting lager style. It pours like golden sunlight with a one finger head....aroma is lightly toasted malt which transcribes to the overall taste as well. A bit of a bitter finish, but not pronounced. Just the thing for quenching an island thirst as the trade winds blow in off the bay. Incidently for those who like a full flavour, try their Fire Rock Ale.

Bought this 6-pack at Ralph’s in Riverside, CA. Pours a clear golden color with a thin white head. Nice malt aroma. Smooth, clean roasted malt taste. Some hops lingering. Kind of sweet as well. Not too bad of a lager.

This was actually a decent lager. Smooth and clean, with a great roasted malt flavor and just enough bittering hops. Earthy and grassy with a lingering bitter finish.

Poured a dark golden yelllow color. Aromas of hops, grains, a tad bitter smelling. Flavors of bitter hops and roast grains. Nice lingering aftertaste.

Had this on-tap at the brewery. The beer poured a clear, light yellow with a small, frothy, off-white, mostly diminishing head that left behind good lacing. The aroma was light overall—moderatley hoppy with notes of grass and straw and a trace of honey. The flavor was lightly sweet with a short, lightly bitter finish. The body was light, the texture was watery and the carbonation was fizzy.
