Kona Brewing Co. - Kailua Kona

This place is great!!! The vibe is great and the food is amazing. You have to get the pepperoni rolls when here. Thanks to Brian and Kayla for the hospitality. You have to try the famous Wailua Wheat beer when here. Highly recommend stopping here after touring the beautiful and huge brewery!!!

Took the 6pm sunset tour. The tour itself was short but informative and we had 7 different beers to taste. We were also able to sit out on the balcony and watch the sunset. After the tour, we went back to the restaurant and had Hawaiian pizza. It is definitely an elevated pizza with goat cheese and pork- it was fantastic. And at night they have tiki torches outside.

I give this restaurant five stars for its service and the tour, which was not only enjoyable but also highly informative, with generous tastings included. They even provide transportation to the brewery, even though it's just a five-minute walk from the restaurant. We decided to stay for dinner and drinks afterward and were seated right away, enjoying excellent service. Overall, I would rate the beer four stars—it's good quality, but I personally found the offerings from Maui to be more interesting and flavorful compared to Kona.

The restaurant features pleasant shaded seating in an open-air setting. Our friendly and attentive server first offered us a couple of beers. I tried the dark coconut beer, which was a fun novelty, followed by the excellent Kua Bay IPA. For dinner, we ordered the loaded Naahehu nachos and a small Captain pizza. Both dishes were delicious and satisfying.

The staff was fantastic! The food was tasty, and I really enjoyed the beer. I tried the Gold Cliff IPA and the Kau Bay IPA, both of which were delicious! The indoor and outdoor spaces are great. However, parking can be a bit tricky since it tends to get busy.
