The focus on outstanding island-style cuisine distinguishes the Kona Brewers Festival from all other beer fests in Hawai'i
This year, we will host 1,500 guests enjoying delicious tastes from several of Hawaii Island’s best culinary artists.
Festival go-ers rave over the savory and delicious creations that are made by all the sensational people who give their time and culinary talent on behalf of our nonprofit Beneficiaries.
To date, we have donated over $100,000 to Kona Kohala American Chefs Association dedicated to Culinary Art Youth Scholarship Programs. This funding provides the next generation of epicurean professionals the training and equipment to succeed in their chosen career.
