Archives: Waimea Brewing 3/2/99

Waimea Brewing Company
Waimea, Kauai, HI
Tuesday 3/2/99, 12:30pm
[open]

House Brews:
Wai`ale`ale Light (B)
Captain Cook's IPA (J)

Dining mauka side in palm grove. View of former sea cliffs.

Wai`ale`ale Light: Pale golden. No remaining head by the time served. Aroma leans towards malty but is faint. Is a very light beer, but not flavorless. Is somewhat thirst quenching. Too bland - no finish - for my tastes, but it succeeds in what they were trying for. 7.8

Captain Cook's IPA: A slight head which disappeared slightly after serving. A nice copper color. Body is a bit thin, but not horrible. Not very hoppy for an IPA. It actually has a decent balance so you can taste some malt. There is taste both in the initial swallow and in the finish. Pleasant. 8.5
