Located at 2764 feet (842.47 meters) in the small ranching town of Waimea, this boutique brewery holds the distinction of being the highest brewery in Hawaii. Locals know this place as an extension to the ever-popular Tako Taco Mexican café. Located in the very heart of Waimea, the brewery was a long time in the making. The vats are anchored to the rear of the restaurant in an old barn with a variety of brews that are too long to list.

Great food, beer, service. This is a must visit if you are anywhere reasonably close. I had a burger that I think is the best I've ever tasted.

My grandmother and I stopped on our way through Waimea. She was using a walker and even though it was a tight space, the staff accommodated her. The food was delicious! Better than the expensive places we had been to on the island. We sampled a few beers and our favorite was the golden sabbath. Great place!

Great place. Good food and drinks but wait can be long and they don't take reservations.

We stopped here on February 26 for lunch on our four day visit to the Big Island on the recommendation of our friend Kim who is a resident of Kailua-Kona. The food was terrific and the beers were all very good. I tried a draft dark ale similar to Chimay’s Grand Reserve but for the life of me, I can’t think of the name.

I can't speak highly enough of this place. The beer, the food, the people-- one of the gems of all of the Big Island. We enjoyed it so much during our first visit in 2016 that we made it back three times in our last 1 week visit (and we were staying in Kona!) Love you guys!
