12 oz. bottle, trade with Daknole, Contract-brewed for the Mainland at Redhook’s Portsmouth, NH brewery. Bottled 7/7/09. Straight-up pale gold lager pour with a thin, fizzy head. A bit of haze in the thicker part of the glass. Some oxidation in the headspace that’s still in the glass, gives way to a bit of a stale beer smell. Taste is nice, though; a fizzy body that carries in some bitter hoppiness. Note of lemongrass. At least the malts give it a nice full mouthfeel. Hops become a bit more peppery toward the end. Decent.

Pours a pale yellow with minimal head and lace. Aroma is bananas and yeast. Flavor is bitter while the palate is uninteresting. Solid light lager.

Clear golden with a fizzy white head. Has a grainy and lightly fruity aroma with a bit of earth notes, as well. Crisp body. Easy to drink lager and good for a warm evening.

Fruit and grain malt aroma. Hazy light golden color with a small white head. Mild bitter finish that fades in the finish.

It pours yellow with a fizzy white and short lived head. The bottle cap taught me Lilo means Lost, which makes the name of the girl in Lilo & Stitch makes sense. It is light, summery and crisp. Good on a hot day or after a workout. The hops are so mild as to leave only the slightest bitterness on the finish. Slight pineyness of the hops, but difficult to find. Reminds me of Hawaii vacations past.

In bottle; tried in Kona. Not bad, just an average, easy drinking lager. I did enjoy it over most of the other Kona brewery beers (Other than the pipeline)

Bottle. Pours a very light yellow with a grainy, generic aroma. Taste isn’t too bad- some sweetness with a hint of floral hops. This is very light in all respects- aroma, taste, and body. Not badly done, but just not a whole lot here....This needs to be ice cold on an 85-degree day to work.
