Limited release. Swimming in a fresh water pool at the base of a cascading waterfall is what we all imagine we would find in paradise.
On Maui, follow the old Hana Highway and you will find such a place – Wailua Falls. This plunging cascade of clear water is the inspiration for our Limited Release Wailua Wheat. This golden, sun colored ale has a bright, citrusy flavor that comes from the tropical passion fruit we brew into each batch. Sit back, relax and enjoy paradise anytime.

clear golden color.
aroma of sour apple cider, and cheap white wine.
Flavour is slightly sour, and odd. I dont taste passionfruit, its a sour wheat flavour, wow, this is odd. Its a quenching summer beer, but an odd one.

Golden colour, mostly vanishing white head. Banana, grain and paper in the nose. Light-bodied. Pale malts, some banana and fruits, light lemony hops, very watery finish. Neh.

Bottle. Light blond colour with small white head. Taste is lightly fruity, bit of bitterness. Easy drinking. Aroma is tropical fruit, bit sweet and syrupy, but alright. Overwhelmingly seems like just a wheat beer with some syrup. --- Beer merged from original tick of Kona Wailua Wheat on 09 Sep 2019 at 16:02 - Score: Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 7.

355ml bottle into pint glass. Golden beer, slightly hazy, thin white head which disappears. Medium carbonation. Nose of grain, dry fruit and dark caramel. Good body, smooth texture. Caramel sweetness is followed late on with light fruit. Only a hint of passionfruit but it is there (right at the end). Super easy-drinking.
