Kahuku Beer Garden & Bottle Shop — Restaurant in Hawaii

beer was great ! came in the past when a younger woman was tending the tap and she was just the sweetest !

but went again, with an older man as the bartender instead. one of my friends had brought in a drink from elsewhere. he took it away immediately, he gave us dirty looks, he even asked us where we were from (we’re born and raised in kahuku), and refused to serve us after checking our IDs (everyone was over 21y/o)

he told us we weren’t allowed to bring in outside drinks and we apologized. we had no idea as there are no signs posted about it anywhere that we could’ve seen, and it seemed to be a very strict rule for him. bringing outside food and children is blatantly encouraged on the sign on the door but not the no outside drink rule, so it was confusing.

we still wanted to buy some beers despite his attitude and having let him “confiscate” the one my friend had brought in, but without giving us a warning, right there he said they won’t serve us, so we just left. a bummer because it’s so close to home for my friends and i, and my experience with that other girl was so great the first time ! just a heads up for anyone who may be planning to make a visit to this beer shop, older man is not very nice at all. if you decide to go and he’s there, be on your best behavior because there is no tolerance...

We love coming here for the latest and greatest locally crafted draft and retail beers! They are big supporters of locally owned and operated businesses. They encourage you to purchase food from surrounding vendors and enjoy it with their ice cold beverages. Very knowledgeable and extremely friendly staff. Noah was an amazing guide through our beer journey. Hes very knowledgeable about the locally crafted beers and had great recommendations for our retail 6 packs. Hes an amazing source of information for all of the questions we had regarding local brewers. Some of which they offer in draft or retail. They have a variety of individual retail beers. Noah helped us build two incredibly diverse six packs to sample and share at home. We absolutely love this place. Great spot, amazing people and ice cold beer. Can't get...

This place is in the middle of many food trucks and pop-up restaurants. It allows you to bring food from all around and sit in the shade while sipping their great beer selection. We had a great hazy IPA, and they also had a fun pineapple cider. The staff was friendly, and the vibe was Aloha-friendly. My favorite part may have been that there was a small Kaiser Permanente adjacent to the Beer Garden. adjacent, you could check in and be seen (or have a beer after your appointment). This made me smile....
