On the label: Keoki Brewing Company, Lihue, HI. ... Keoki Sunset: A mahogany color hints at its subtle balance of delicious flavors. A slightly roasted malt taste, fresh hop flavor and aroma gives this beer a bittersweet chocolate complexity with a velvet-like body.
Summary: A lot of hype. I cut 'em some slack since they're locally brewed, which ain't easy in a hot climate.
