Kona Light
Kona Light is a blonde ale brewed with mango, formerly sold as Kanaha Blonde Ale after a kiteboarding beach on Maui. Amarillo, Mosaic and Millennium hops sit over a pale, lean malt base. It pours a bright yellow with a white head. The nose shows ripe mango and juicy tropical fruit with a little citrus and a floral touch. The body is light and lively, the fruit carries into the middle, and the finish is short and dry with soft bitterness.
