Fifteen years ago, Maui Brewing set out to make beer dedicated to “aloha ‘aina,” or, “love of the land.” Capturing tropical flavors across a variety of beer styles, they honed their craft with locally-sourced ingredients and laid-back island spirit. 

Now, they’re multi-World Beer Cup champions and Hawaii’s largest craft brewery! 

Today’s 15 Year Anniversary Blend showcases the brewers’ years of skill. It’s a massive four-way blend of Imperial Porter, Imperial Stout, Barleywine, and Imperial Brown Ale — all aged for a year in Bourbon, Cognac, Brandy, and Rum Barrels! 

Get a bottle, and you’ll find each sip brimming with the brewers’ “love of the land,” too. The combo-barrel aging makes for luxurious notes of dark cacao, rich coffee, sweet molasses, and cinnamon. While it’s silky smooth throughout, a dose of toasted papaya seeds leads to a zesty finish of earthy, island spice. 

Even if you’ve tried one of Maui’s dark beers before, you haven’t tasted this blend of 11.5% ABV decadence. Secure a bottle now, and toast to 15 years of Hawaii-honed mastery!
