[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am not a big beer fan but the Kona Big Wave beer was good. It’s light and has a tropical flavor. It is a sweet flavor that is fruity. The packaging and bottles are fun- perfect for a backyard party. 4.4% ABV and these go down easy on a hot summer day.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Kona Big Wave Golden Ale is a solid choice for those who enjoy light, refreshing beers, but it may not satisfy everyone looking for a more complex experience. The beer pours a clear, golden color with a thin white head that dissipates quickly. Its aroma is inviting, with hints of tropical fruit and subtle malt sweetness. On the palate, Big Wave is smooth and easy-drinking, featuring flavors of pineapple and passion fruit that give it a pleasantly fruity character. The malt backbone is mild, offering just enough sweetness to balance the light hop bitterness. The finish is clean and crisp, making it an excellent beer for hot summer days or casual drinking. However, for those who prefer a beer with more depth and complexity, Big Wave might come across as somewhat one-dimensional. The flavor profile, while refreshing, lacks the robustness that some beer enthusiasts might seek. Additionally, its light body and low ABV (4.4%) might not be satisfying for those looking for a more substantial beer. Overall, Kona Big Wave Golden Ale is a good, approachable beer, particularly for those new to craft brews or who prefer lighter options. While it may not be a standout in the craft beer world, it’s reliable and enjoyable in the right setting.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This brand has such a solid line of beers. The Big Wave and the Wailua Wheat are my favorites. Although, it's harder to find the Wailua one lately. Big Wave has a very tasty rounded flavor. If you haven't tried it, get some, it's not going to disappoint you.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a delicious light ale. There is a slight fruity aroma. It is not bitter and not too sweet. It is not a super hoppy beer which I prefer easy on the hops. It is a smooth, balanced ale that is perfect for a hot summer day next to the pool.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got a pack of this beer courtesy of Influenster to test out in exchange for my honest opinion. I’m not a beer drinker, so I had my husband give me his thoughts on this beer. This has been one of his favorite beers since my brother-in-law introduced it to him due our trip to Hawaii a few years ago. The packaging is reminiscent of Hawaii. He describes the beer as having a smooth and light taste and it is very refreshing. He has continued to buy it since he first tried it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This beer is crisp, light and refreshing. Great for a summer day. It has a fairly low alcohol content, so nice easy drinking. The packaging is fun and bright! It’s not my favorite beer as I found it to have a slight aftertaste, but will definitely enjoy this six pack and wouldn’t turn down another!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Kona Big Wave Packaging is fun and appealing. The bottle is thick and solid. It has a hoppy aroma and hints of citrus and a slightly bitter taste. The price is reasonable compared to similar type brands. Makes a great summer beer but can be used year round and paired with all types of foods.
