Crafting Liquid Aloha Since 1994
Founded in 1994 by father and son duo Cameron Healy and Spoon Khalsa, Kona Brewing Company is one of Hawaii’s most iconic breweries, headquartered in Kailua-Kona on the Big Island. Driven by a passion for Hawaii’s culture, beauty, and local ingredients, Kona Brewing has grown from a small island brewery into a beloved name worldwide while staying true to its Hawaiian roots.
The brewery produces a wide range of craft beers, with popular offerings like Longboard Island Lager, Big Wave Golden Ale, and the seasonal Pipeline Porter, brewed with 100% Kona coffee. Kona Brewing’s beers capture the flavors of the islands, often incorporating local ingredients such as passionfruit, ginger, and lemongrass. The brewery operates two popular pubs, one in Kailua-Kona and the other in Hawai‘i Kai on O‘ahu, both known for serving fresh, locally sourced food and offering a welcoming, laid-back atmosphere with live music.
Kona Brewing also emphasizes sustainability, with a state-of-the-art, eco-friendly brewery on the Big Island and a commitment to supporting local farmers and communities. Their MAKANA program donates to over 100 local nonprofits each year, and their Backyard Batch series showcases small-batch, island-exclusive beers brewed specifically for Hawaii.
Whether you’re enjoying a pint at one of their scenic brewpubs or sipping a cold Longboard on the beach, Kona Brewing brings the spirit of Aloha to every pour.
