Kona Brewing Company Big Wave – Golden Ale at 4.4% ABV | 21 IBU

Kona Brewing Company Big Wave Golden Ale Golden Ale at 4.4% ABV | 21 IBU (US$2.83 at Walmart, 355 ml, packaged on 8-Feb-2019, acquired 24-Apr-2019, reviewed 24-Apr-2019)

Appearance: clear pale gold with a short white head diminishing gradually to a thin ring, no lacing. (3/5) Aroma: honey, pineapple, grass, hint of pine. (7/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate-low bitter. (6/10) Palate: medium body, moderate carbonation, medium duration mild finish. (3/5)

A pretty pleasant and inoffensive entry-level craft beer – a definite step up from macro lagers, yet approachable. On the other hand, it’s not quite bland, but certainly doesn’t grab the attention in any way. (13/20)

6.5/10 #ryansbooze ryansbooze.com
