I do, kind of expensive and not much variety, but it is local and comes in cans which some claim are more environmentally friendly.

I'm a big fan of growler fills at Mehana. All fills 20% off until year end. They have a superb product, very nice selection, great staff and cheaper-than-mainland prices. Mmmmm... Tsunami IPA... Pavlovian response engaged.

In my opinion the best HI beers are Maui Brewing. Not only the best tasting, but they also make the cans in the state (from recycled aluminum), make much of their own energy, plus they are also getting into distilling.

Apparently there is a new brewery opening in Kona next month and will be using locally sourced ingredients. Looks interesting. Can't wait to try the ciders.

Agreed that Maui Brewing is top notch, although Big Island Brewhaus in Waimea is a close contender IMHO, and do sampler flights of their many brews in their "beer garden" covered with growing vines of hops. Good food to boot as well - a highly recommended stop while visiting up mauka. Cheers! http://bigislandbrewhaus.com/ (Sorry, never had Big Island Organics so no real comment, although given that Pahoa spigot water is shipped to CA for bottling and reimported as $4 a bottle specialty water for the Waikoloa Resorts, can't say I'm much surprised by the "selling on image" tactic)

How come none of you get a lecture on joining AA?
AA is for people who have a "problem" managing their alcoholism.
