It didn't exactly make me feel like I was in Hawai'i.

Good grassy bitterness, but a little sweeter in the malt than I remember. Probably not sunny enough outside for me to have really enjoyed this.

Crisp, refreshing. A nice cereal maltiness, not too much but enough to give flavor. Not too sweet.

Light funky odor. Slightly soapy but sweetish cereal taste. Clean, light and fairly fizzy. Beach beer.

They sure have a lot of lagers at this lu'au. This was more watery than I remembered. I feel like I've been saying "watery" a lot lately, but ... this was. Honestly, though? The beachside will make up for a lot of shortcomings.

Exceedingly pleasant, as always.

Hits all the lager notes I like. Not amazing, but enjoyably solid, which seems to be how Kona does it.

It was a tasting, and I had eight kinda strong drafts. I took "notes" with my phone, but they got pretty vague.
