Pours a deep reddish brown with a short-lived beige to tan colored head. Butterscotchy, bready malt profile with a touch of hops to round out the aroma. Nice flavor to it. Mostly malty, almost has a sweet tea flavor, but with a floral hop finish to keep it all in check. A friend of mine brought me back a couple 6ers from her trip to Hawaii and it seems the brewers on the islands seem to mostly stay true to a beer's style. However, they seem to put a twist on a beer that makes it unique to Hawaii. A very welcome change of pace. This beer was very drinkable and enjoyable. Shame it's my last bottle.
