We invite you to the 17th Annual
Kona Brewers Festival |
 |
The 17th annual Kona Brewers Festival indulges craft beer aficionados on Hawaii's Big Island Saturday, March 10, 2012, tapping up 70 types of ales and lagers served alongside a cornucopia of island-style cuisine from 30 Hawaii chefs. The sell-out event, presented by Sunetric, Keauhou Veterinary Hospital and First Hawaiian Bank, features craft beer, gourmet food, live music and entertainment outdoors at King Kamehameha's Kona Beach Hotel luau grounds in Kailua-Kona from 2:30 to 6:30 p.m. The Kona Brewers Festival is the headline event of a multi-day celebration that includes a home brew competition, a beer and food pairing dinner at the Sheraton Keauhou Bay Resort on Thursday March 8; a charity golf tournament at Big Island Country Club Friday, March 9; and a Walk/Run for Hops race Saturday morning, March 10.
Tickets to the Kona Brewers Festival Main Event on Saturday are available in advance only. Cost is $60 and includes a commemorative event mug, eight four-ounce brew tasting coupons, unlimited samplings of gourmet cuisine and an afternoon of entertainment. Tickets are available for purchase online in mid-January through this website, at Kona Brewing Company locations in Kona and Honolulu and at Mehana Brewing Company in Hilo.
The Kona Brewers Festival is a community fundraising event made possible by the Bill Healy Foundation. This premier event promotes the craft brewery revolution in Hawaii and encourages professional brewers and chefs to work together. BrewFest raises funds for environmental, educational and cultural organizations. Over the past 16 years, $475,000 has been donated to Big Island charitable organizations.
Please be sure to check out all the Kona Brewers Festival events - activities sure to pique diverse interests: a Brewers Pa'ina , a Golf Tournament at the Big Island Country Club, and a Run for Hops starting and ending at Kona Brewing Company Brewpub.
