Good tasting sweet beer

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I don’t drink a lot of beer but this one was pretty good. It tasted kind of sweet and there was a little bit of after taste, but not a bad taste. It smelled like beer, but that was to be expected. The beer had real good head so it was not flat. It comes in bottles or cans for those that do not like one or the other.

The bes beer I eat had

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have received this product from Influenster in exchange for a honest review. Kona Brewing Co.’s Big Wave Golden Ale is a delightful, easy-drinking beer that embodies the laid-back, tropical spirit of Hawaii. This golden ale pours with a light, golden color and a frothy, white head, creating an inviting visual. The aroma is subtle but pleasant, offering notes of tropical fruit, honey, and a hint of floral hops. Upon the first sip, Big Wave stands out with its smooth, crisp mouthfeel. The flavor is mildly sweet, with hints of caramel malt balanced by a touch of citrus and tropical fruit, like pineapple and passion fruit. Unlike many craft beers, it has a very light bitterness, which makes it exceptionally refreshing and accessible, even to those who are not typically beer enthusiasts. The finish is clean and refreshing, with a slight hint of hops lingering just enough to balance out the sweetness. At 4.4% ABV, Kona Big Wave is perfect for casual sipping on a hot day. It’s light enough to pair with a variety of foods, particularly seafood, grilled chicken, or tropical dishes. Overall, Big Wave is an excellent choice for anyone seeking a smooth, flavorful, and highly drinkable beer that embodies a taste of the islands.

Refreshing beer!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My husband and I tried this beer for the first time and it was absolutely delicious! The carbonation level is perfect and there is a slight tropical taste almost like pineapple. The labeling makes me feel like I’m on vacation.

Light and fruity

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's an approachable inoffensive beer. It has a nice, light fruity flavor, and i was barely able to try it myself before my husband drank the rest!

Easy drinking

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a very easy drinking beer. For only 21 IBU, it did have a bit more of a hoppy flavor than I anticipated. Although not overly bitter, it had a crisp after taste and refreshing mouth feel.
