Kona Brewing Big Wave Golden Ale (12 oz)

Kona Brewing Big Wave Golden Ale
From the "Can"
  • Catch A Wave - The north shore of Oahu gets all the attention (as it should) but the waves at Makaha are just as sweet. Our brewers wanted to make a beer that went down easy after a day out on the water. Big Wave is the beer for kicking back and talking story at sunset, and we're all about that.

The Beer Can section is a virtual homage to the American beer-can collecting craze of the 1970s. The rise of thousands of microbreweries have made 'dump scouring' or digging for old beer cans in the woods and abandoned campgrounds a thing of the past. The thousands of young men who could pick up a can in any vacant lot when the hobby was at its zenith in the 1970s have grown up - but fortunately may now find hundreds of colorful cans (full of good brew) within mere miles of their homes.

Brewer's Exegesis

Big Wave is a lighter-bodied golden ale with a tropical hop aroma and flavor - smooth, easy drinking, and refreshing. The use of caramel malt contributes to the golden hue of this beer, and our special blend of hops provides a bright, quenching finish that makes it a struggle to not grab another one. Food pairings: Big Wave’s lighter body and bright hop aroma and taste make it a natural choice to enjoy with seafood, poultry, salads, and light pasta dishes. Malts include Pale 2 Row Premium, Caramel 20, while hops include Galaxy, Citra.
