Will Posthole For Porter My friend Michael (pictured) and I snowshoed in 5' of fresh snow up to 10,100' in the Spring Mountain Range outside of Las Vegas. On our decent we stopped to enjoy the finest porter on the planet. We will continue playing in the snow if you continue to make Pipeline Porter.	Longboard Snowcones My thirsty husky girl Wren enjoying a small token of love in the form of a Longboard snowcone.
Soapy Suds I am a soaper and just started to use your beers in my soaps..AWESOME!! They work really well and just thought I would share another AWESOME use for your great beer :)	Socke Monkie Enjoys Longboard We first discovered Kona beer when vacationing in Honolulu in September 2008. We have made it an anniversary tradition to return to Hawaii each year and one of the first things we search for is anything Kona Brewing Co. While my favorite is the Wailua Wheat, our traveling companion, Socke Monkie, enjoys the Longboard Lager. We're already looking forward to out trip to the Big Island this September and visiting Kona Brewing Co. We'll be sure to bring Socke by to say hi!
Snowed in with our Longboards This was taken during our first snow storm of the Winter 2009, on our deck. We were enjoying the Liquid Aloha in our hot tub during the snow and thinking about our vacation in Hawaii. We will see all of you at the brewery soon. But, not soon enough. By the way thanks for shipping the Aloha to us.	Pipeline Porter Pleasure I had the pleasure to stumble upon your Pipeline Porter in the middle of Texas. Needless to say, I fell in love. I made a tribute doodle at my online community using a paint based drawing program. Mahalo, Shaun "Madhatter" G
A Summer of Longboard This is a pyramid of the empties that we had over our summer "Friday Night Barbeques". Great friends, great beer, and great times! And yes, that is all Longboard!	Island Lager, Outer Banks and my Jeep...priceless This photo was taken Thanksgiving Day while hangin' out at Corolla Beach in the OBX. Longboard Island Lager was the perfect beer after a day of driving the Jeep in the sand.
Always our first stop Layovers in the Honolulu Airport are always welcome when there's cold Longboard to be had!	Celebrating 48 months of snowboarding I am enjoying my favorite beer while celebrating completing my 48th month of consecutive snowboarding at Chinook Pass in Washington State.
Longboarding Lake Tahoe Who needs big waves?	Great Scenery I was on vacation on Oahu last week and drank a lot of your beer. I took the enclosed picture from our hotel room (after drinking a lot of your beer) and thought you guys might think it was cool!
Canine Consumption We chose your beer in a little town in Idaho, and even our dog drank it! See you in Hawaii in 2010!	Working up a thirst in NH After a day of sun & surf on the New Hampshire seacoast, look forward to a cool Wailua Wheat to relax and balance off the surf session. Thanks for bringing Aloha to New England!
A True Vacation My girlfriend Angela and I recently took a trip to Hawaii over the summer and I have to say one of my favorite parts was visiting your pub! We have been getting a couple of your brews up here in Colorado so Longboard has been my favorite beer for some time now. It was truly great to finally be able to try your "draft only" beers (Hula Hefeweizen being my favorite) Mahalo!	Kona Brew and wedding rings We were married in December but waited until we came over for the Kona Brewers Festival in March for our rings. We had the rings made in the Kailua Kona Inn Marketplace. After picking them up we went over for dinner of Imu Pork and Castaway IPA. We will be back next year!
Longboard Bar I built this bar for our annual luau and by coincidence my wife found your beer! This is how we get our Aloha on in the central valley of California. The bar was a hit with the crowd and your beer is a hit with me!	Honopu Ridge Brew'n'View While hiking around Kauai, my husband and I were sure to pack two Kona brews with us on each hike. This picture captures me getting ready to experience pure bliss while taking in the majestic view with a delicious brew after a long hike! Mahalo!
Celebrating with Kona Brew Enjoying our favorite beer on vacation. This picture was taken after our engagement. And what better way to celebrate than with Kona Brew.	Kylee and her Wailua Wheat Kylee, our 7 month old German Shepherd enjoying Wailua Wheat the only way she can. Mom and dad enjoy this beer while sitting out on our patio in Northern California missing the Kona coast.
Fire on the Mountain Enjoying a Fire Rock Pale Ale on the top of Mauna Loa on the Big Island!	Feelin' the "Liquid Aloha" at Kona Brewery We stayed in Volcano but drove 2.5 hours just to taste the goodness of the Hula Hef... well worth every second of the drive! I can now officially classify this beer as the best beer I have ever consumed. Will gladly travel thousands of miles once again to taste this Liquid Aloha! (P.S.- AZ would love to drink more Kona brews.)
Our Hawaiian Honeymoon Happy Hour My new wife, Karen, and I just returned from Maui and Kauai for our honeymoon. This picture is just one of the memories of our amazing trip to one of the most perfect places in the world. This is just one of the Hawaiian Honeymoon Happy Hours we shared and my drink of choice is now Longboard Lager. I am hoping to find in Chicago, IL and drink a lot more of it.	Longboarding in Cannon Beach, OR Even with a great view of Haystack Rock, I still have Hawaii on my mind. Aloha, Brad
Kona Boy enjoying the beach! Kona boy loves the ocean and sitting by the sea wall. He is not allowed to drink so we enjoy our favorite Kona brews for him. He would like to be the official dog of Kona Brewing Co.	Missing My Big Wave No matter where I go in the world it is always the same. If I can get my Big Wave or Fire Rock Ale everything is perfect. Although, if I can not find it then nothing seems the same. I really hope more companies start carrying some of the Aloha spirit.
Kona Love We are all loving your beer. So now, over the past year or so, there's isn't one party or dinner that goes by without someone bringing the "Kona beer". My friends Dave and Jean are getting married this September. Can you guess which beer they're going to be serving at the reception? KONA BREWING CO. BEER! Coincidently, Jean and Dave had their first picture as an "official" couple taken right outside your brewery.	Kona Red While visiting the Kona Brew Pub, I was inspired to paint this oil painting on canvas. Just loved sitting beneath the red umbrellas, and testing the brews. Oh did I mention, my son, Jesse works there. Aloha!
Pouring up the Kona Awesomeness The sun was shining and the Kona Longboards, Fire Rocks, and Wailua Wheats were flowing at the 2009 East Atlanta Beer Festival in Atlanta, GA on May 30th. This annual event draws thousands into East Atlanta Village to support local community projects. The Kona table was quite popular and attendees were excited to learn about the beers finally being available in Georgia.	Nectar of the gods in the City of Champions! I was lucky enough to visit Kona Brewery on the Big Island last year, and since then, I've been hooked! Unfortunately, here in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, we can't get Kona beer! I was lucky enough to have friends bring it home when they visited Florida. We may have six Super Bowl victories, but we feel empty without Kona beer!
Aloha from Virginia Beach! On the other side of the country, fans went "Longboarding" and enjoyed Kona's Liquid Aloha at Norfolk, Virginia's 8th annual Virginia Beer Festival.	Thirsty in the Canyon! Where better to enjoy a frosty Hawaiian-style beer than in the middle of the arid Grand Canyon? Who needs big waves to surf with a Longboard?!
One last Liquid Aloha for the flight home So happy to find one last opportunity to have a Kona before leaving the islands. Had a chance to try a few of the different Kona beers on Maui and Kauai. Hopefully will be able to find them back here in Wisconsin / Michigan. Otherwise will have to start on planning the next trip back to Hawaii.	"Cold Longboards! ... Over there !" OK ... it's all about the water. But when it's time to put the kayaks away there's always Happy Hour on South Maui ... and an ice-cold Longboard! When I'm in a hoppy mood ... gimme a Fire Rock! Other than that ... all there is here are beaches, snorkeling and scuba, sunsets, yada yada yada ... :-)
Delicious when naturally chilled! Enjoying a Pipeline after a sunny, late-day backcountry ski in Northwest Montana.	Honolulu Marathon Cheering on the runners from the sidelines and waiting for Uncle Billy...I wore a bottle cap lei. Hey it took alot of beer to make that lei!
Learning Hawaiian..one cap at a time. It was great to be drinking your beer and relaxing on the beach at Kahana all the while learning the language of Aloha from the bottle caps and the natives.	Switched to Longboard I just spent a week on Maui celebrating my anniversary and wanted to send a photo to some friends to make them jealous.
Missing Golden Ale in St. Louis My family recently spent a great week in Kona. Our boys love contests, so we came up with one on our long plane trip. We each guessed what color our rental Wrangler would be, and the winner got to choose the restaurant for dinner the first night. My husband won (he chose red), and we arrived at KBC after a long day of travel. The boys loved your pizza, and my husband and I loved the beer - our favorite is the Big Wave Golden Ale. We're sad it's not available in St. Louis, but wanted to say mahalo for a great time!
