Since we opened over 25 years ago, Kona Brewing Co. has been committed to making locally brewed beers in the most environmentally responsible way possible. When we outgrew our original brewery years ago, we wanted to find a way to expand without putting pressure on our island home’s precious resources. In 2021, our brand-new 30,000-square foot brewery will open as one of the most sustainable breweries in the world. Located just down the road from the original Kona brewery and brewpub, the new brewery will have an annual capacity of 100,000 barrels and include a canning line so that we can package more of our island brews in this portable, lightweight package!

Kona Brewing Co. is proud to be expanding production in our hometown while setting the standard for brewing beer in a way that’s efficient and environmentally responsible. By brewing more beer on the islands, we decrease our carbon footprint and overall impact on the environment. Kona also teamed up with innovators in technology and sustainability to invest in new eco-friendly brewing technology. Our new brewery will have solar panels covering every square inch of the roof, produce 100% of our CO₂ thanks to a state-of-the-art CO₂ recovery system, and generate an estimated 50% of our water and one-third of our energy needs.

We hope to see you soon, Mahalo!
