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.

Great beer options. Their five beer flight is a wonderful way to try a bunch of new beers. We've been twice and enjoyed both the food and the beer. The White Mountain porter is the smoothest coffee porter I've ever tried. I'm not a porter kind of person but loved it, as did my more dark beer husband. Try the fish bites. Their dipping sauce is lick the bowl good. Service is friendly and efficient. Go there.

Great beer and food. A little bit out of the way from Kona but worth the drive. Just continue the drive to the volcano where you can walk and bike it and your day will be complete!!!

Beer Is awesome and the food may be even better. I saw locals sitting there waiting to get take out! I mean, WHO goes to an awesome brewery to order takeout!? Apparently, these locals do, because they're smart. Yum yum yum yum!

Parking is a little tight, always is anywhere outside of the resorts on the island, but the food is awesome, excellent local beers, and just the kind of laid back place you can hang out at on a Saturday. Worth the drive from Hilo. Hit the weekend market and then stop for a cold one, or two.

My first trip to Big Island Brewhaus, but won't be my last. Great White Mountain Porter and had the bacon blue cheese burger., a great choice. We had friends in from Portland and they enjoyed the beer sampler and also a porter. Had to wait a little for a table, but worth it!
