Description
Maui Brewing Company was founded by Garrett Marrero and Melanie Oxley. They started as a single brew-pub, a small restaurant that served its own locally brewed beer in January 2005. Demand for the beer outgrew the space available in the brewpub and in 2007, Maui Brewing Company started producing and packaging beer out of a separate production facility. In 2012 Marrero and Oxley opened yet another larger production facility, which increased their capacity from 18,000 barrels of beer to almost 40,000 barrels.

Review based on the BJCP2021 guidelines (style 29A: orange, mango, guava / 21C). Can 35.5 cl - Batch undeclared (BB: undeclared - Canned on 06/09/2025). AROMA: medium-high hop aroma (grapefruit-like and lupulin) with faint hints of guava. medium-low neutral-sweet malt background. slight peppery alcoholic notes. APPEARANCE: pale yellow color and hazy. medium-low white to off-white head with average retention. TASTE: medium to medium-low hop flavor (grapefruit-like, pine, slight mint) with a medium-low neutral-sweet malt background. medium to medium-high bitterness balancing an initial sweet impression. finishes semi-dry with a bit of bitterness that persists. MOUTHFEEL: medium body with medium carbonation. slight alcoholic warmth OVERALL: the base hazy IPA is ok but the added fruit is practically gone with just some very faint hints.

Can fer nearly 3 bucks at vintage estate. Pour is off pale slight orange tint hazy with a big head that fades rapidly. Looks like grapefruit juice with a head. Mild grapefruit nose. First taste impression is its like bitter grapefruit juice. Needs more carbonation. Difficult to find the guava, orange or mango in this mess. Could pass as a bitter grapefruit juice shandy, hehehh. Still, the IPA hops in there keep trying to make their presence known. Ok for a tick and for this macro lager lover the taste thankfully is not terribly on style mouth coating viscous resin bitter hops IPA. There, you have it. Hard to believe this stuff is actually 7%. Comes across much lighter than that.

Pours very hazy with a small head. The aroma is mainly citrusy tropical fruit. The flavor is mildly bitter and very fruity but also has some resinous hops in there. It works alright.

Translucent chimney gold, strange pour at groundswell in Chula with the wife.
Astringent dank, cigarettes & papaya, pineapple nose.
Bittersharp, surprising tannins, lime & grapefruit, grapefruit pith, strong amount of danky hops, steel on the finish. This is really fun.
Crispy, thin, a touch boozy.
Good.
