Commercial Description:
With all-natural ingredients, the Keoki Sunset's mahogany color hints at it's subtle balance of delicious, rich flavors. A slight roasted malt taste and good hop aroma gives this Hawaii beer a bittersweet chocolate complexity and a velvet-like body with a quaffable character.

Ingredients:
Malts: 2-Row Brewers Malt, Carapils, White Wheat, Caramel Vienne, Carmel 120L
Hops: Simcoe, for bittering and Vanguard, for flavor and aroma

Looks good. Looks strong. I must agree with other raters and say not much aroma. Taste is there though. Reminds me of Sierra Nevada’s Celebration Ale. Maybe not quite as packed by enough to make me raise in eyebrow. Not bad.

The bar had this listed on their menu as ’Sunset Lager.’ Expecting a bland light lager, I was happily surprised when the beer arrived and was dark in color with a good balance between caramel malt and hoppy aroma. A very good pale and and well balanced.

bottle. Pours a light caramel color with a fast disappearing head. Not attractive. Nose is of sweet malt and caramel. Flavor consists of one sided sweetness with a slightly bitter finish. Palate also leaves something to be desired. This is simply a marginal beer.

22 oz bottle, purchased at Foodland, Princeville, Kauai. Pours a dark red color. No aroma whatsoever. Pretty typical Amber, although this is much more malty than other Ambers I have had recently. Overall, there is nothing about this beer that stands out. I think the fact that I am sitting here on a lanai staring out at the Napali Coast is causing me to be generous with my rating.

deep amber pour with a tiny bit of froth at top. roasted malts and fruits on the nose along with a slight syrup scent. nice thickness and a great malt taste with notes of chocolate.
