NEW MAUI BEER ALERT
Yesterday, at Freshcraft in Denver, I had the newest addition to the Maui canned line.
It is called Mana Wheat, and if ever there were a tiki beer, this is it.
Low-hopped, crisp and clean wheat beer brewed with MAUI GOLD PINEAPPLES.
Delicious.
I was reading up on it and it says it's been around since 2009, but this is the first time I've seen or heard of the cans here on the mainland.

Hmm. I've seen it a few times lately but have been afraid to try it - I feel like it could either be really good or really awful (I expected to like the Kona Wailua Wheat with passion fruit, but thought it was vile.) Now that's been declared delicious, I'll have to give it a try.

Yeah, that Kona wheat is pretty awful.
This, though, is really tasty.
Nice and quenching.
Can't wait to have it on a hot summer day.

I think the Kona here out East is actually brewed in New Hampshire or somesuch.

saw some Primo Island Lager in a hole in the wall beer shop this morning, was going to try it but saw that it was brewed in california (not Hawaii), so took a pass.

Came across information for these beers today:

Not sure what a "Hawaiian Style Pale Ale" is supposed to be, and I'm afraid to know how pork is involved.

san moo has my vote as one.....plus there was a good market for US beer in the PTO given how much was shipped in during ww2 for use by our guys....i think at one point the island of Mog Mog, a large R&R spot, had the largest pile of empty bottles and cans in the world....so Miller or Schlitz would not be out of the question..as has been stated, i think it's more the surroundings than the beer..
