Koholā Brewery

Top choice in Lahaina


Bags of barley and corrugated metals give this microbrewery an industrial vibe. But you'll hardly notice the spartan surrounds as you sample brews including American pale ale, lager, pilsner, IPAs, and many seasonal specials. The beers are some of the islands' best and the bartenders are great at offering samples of the latest creations.

Tuesday is trivia night (7pm). You can also find Koholā beers at Lahaina restaurants including Frida's, Honu Seafood & Pizza, Down the Hatch, and Fleetwood's.
