Yum

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very fruity , a little malty, and a little hoppy. Smooth and light but still flavorful and not bland. Really easy to drink and enjoyable anytime of the year. This is a very balanced and tasty beer that is a part of my regular rotation. I would even recommend this to non- beer drinkers, as it is so easy going. Aloha!

Light and refreshing 🤤

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Kona Beer's Big Wave Liquid Aloha is a light golden ale that is vibrant and less bitter than other ales. The hint of citrus is refreshing on a hot summer day. Close your eyes and allow this laid back ale to transport you to breezy tropical Hawaiian beach. Drinking this beer will make you feel like you are in Kona!!

Summer Beer!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Kona Big Wave is one of those beers that never disappoints. It’s incredibly smooth, with a light, slightly sweet malt flavor and just a touch of tropical fruitiness that makes it super refreshing. The golden ale style means it’s not too heavy or bitter, perfect for people who want a clean, easy-drinking beer without sacrificing flavor. This is a perfect go-to for beach days, BBQs, or just relaxing on the patio. Plus, the branding gives off total island vibes—just holding the bottle feels like a mini escape.

Something is missing, not quite the Hawaii feel

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really enjoyed it, a little bit heavy for my taste but I would definitely drink it again if available. Almost had the Hawaii feel, the packaging definitely nailed it though! The carbonation was alright but could've definitely had slightly more.

Smooth and refreshing but pretty generic

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ll admit that Kona big wave blonde/golden ale is a step up from a lot of the other macro brewery beers you will find almost everywhere. I do however greatly prefer and recommend local micro brewery beers whenever possible, even if they cost a bit more. That said, Big Wave is a refreshing, easy drinking light beer with a little sweetness and tropical flavor profile. Easy to find and consistent so you always know what you’re getting. I actually do go for a Big Wave every once in a while when I am at a sporting event or big concert where micro brews are not available. I was happy to have the chance to pick some up for home and review it.

Great!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have lived in Hawaii for years before moving to Vegas, and Kona is a familiar brand for many items. This Kona Beer is a new one for me. I like beer, but it isn't usually my first choice. However, this beer is light and flavorful. It's is refreshing and well priced. I really enjoyed it and would recommend it to any of my 21 + friends.

Perfect summer beer!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Kona if one of my favorite summer sodas. It is crisp and refreshing especially after being in the heat all day. I always smell my beer prior to taking the first sip and this smells so good. I love the Hawaiian design on the label as well! Drink really chilled or the carbonation will be a bit much.

It really taste like a vacation in a bottle

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I LOVE the taste of this beer is really like a vacation in a bottle. I love that it tastes so fresh and taste like you’re in Hawaii. It keeps you very relaxed. I made it with our lunch and we all loved it so much. It goes great with Hawaiian barbecue food. It taste so refreshing and I love it in the six pack.

Nice light beer

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product for free in exchange for my honest review. This beer was light and refreshing with a noticeable golden hoppy taste. We felt there was not a lot of head for this specific beer unless we got a bad batch. I would say it's a decent light beer but nothing stands out about it.
