Refreshing beer with hints of tropical notes

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very refreshing beer with a hint of something tropical (can’t quite pin it to what exactly). It has great carbonation and refreshing to sip on a hot day. Love the glass design and small details on it. Overall, great beer!

Decent Summer Beer

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a decent, light tasting beer; however I was expecting a fruiter after taste being labeled as “liquid aloha”. Definitely a nice, light, summer beer nonetheless (I would say similar to Sam’s summer ale). Also not overly carbonated.

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.

Kona Big Wave

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm not much of a beer drinker anymore, but I do like trying new things. I had to go to a couple locations before I found what I was looking for. The bottle and label are of nice quality but the quality of the six-pack carrier seemed flimsy. My boyfriend smelled it after I opened it and that made him not want to try it. The flavor was surprisingly good, like it wasn't bitter or anything. I could see myself enjoying a couple of bottles next time I relax out in the backyard.

Pineapple taste!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the packaging (ocean turquoise and yellow hibiscus) and name of this beer...Kona Big Wave Liquid Aloha. It is a mild flavored, not too sweet beer, with a surprising slightly pineapple flavor! It is good ice cold or slightly chilled.

Beeeeer

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It’s a clean smooth taste, it’s not to strong of an ale taste and it’s light and refreshing. Perfect on a hot summer day pool side. My husband loved it and was surprised at its simplicity and not a strong ale taste. The packaging is very appealing

Good flavorable beer

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It looks like light beer but has the flavor and taste of a dark beer. I drank from bottles but it looked light. I like it. I drink the darker beer occasionally and I would drink this again. Cool name and design too. It’s a nice chill kind of vibe beer. Like kick back and socialize with friends than having a drunken night. Cost was about average for this kind of beer.

Perfection

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Kona Brewing Company's Big Wave Golden Ale in the 6-pack, 12 fl oz. bottles can only be described as a perfect tropical delight!! It's silky smooth with a delicious crisp taste!! What sets Kona Brewing Company's Ale apart from ALL other Ale's? Without a doubt, it's the unexpected and surprising hints of perfectly ripened citrus and fresh honey straight off the comb, a perfect mix that they have perfected!! Two flavors that ALL Ale's 100% need!! I can never drink Ale any other way than how Kona Brewing Company does it!! Whether you're lounging on the beach or enjoying a backyard barbecue, Kona Brewing Company's Ale would, without a doubt, be a welcome addition! The light-bodied ale is insanely refreshing and easy to drink, making it a crowd-pleaser amongst everyone from beer enthusiasts to casual drinkers alike. This ale has a perfectly blended flavor profile and moderate ABV, making it perfect to bring to any gathering!! This ale is so diverse that it can be paired with quite literally any type of food!! Everything from spicy taco night to Thai takeout at home, to pizza nights with friends, and of course can't forget BBQ burgers!! The packaging is convenient for sharing with friends or enjoying solo, and the Hawaiian-inspired design adds a touch of vacation vibes to any gathering. Kona Big Wave is a must-try for anyone looking for a taste of the islands in every single sip!
