Longboard Island Lager is a smooth refreshing lager fermented and aged for five weeks at cold temperatures to yield its exceptionally smooth flavor. A delicate, slightly spicy hop aroma complements the malty body of this beer.

A very drinkable lager with a good taste and crisp feel. Really cool bottle. I would like it more though if it weren’t an outrageously priced AB-InBev beer. Also not even brewed in Hawaii.

Nothing special compared to other lagers, but pretty good. Don't like the price though

The bottle looks cool, it has a unique shape that fits well in the hand, and has the Hawaiian islands on engraves on the glass. Tastes crisp and clean, with just the right amount of bitter, very sessionable.

Tried it as part of a pick 6/pk ~1.67/bottle

Pours golden with a loose white soapy head

Standard lager aroma and taste

Not a bad cheap beer

Fairly crisp and refreshing
