Maui Brewing to open a restaurant at the Outrigger resort on Kā‘anapali Beach in Hawai‘i this summer

Summer is already sizzling around the beautiful islands of Hawai‘i. Those looking for something a little new around the isles should look no further than Maui Brewing Co.‘s new restaurant at the Outrigger Kā‘anapali Beach Resort on Maui. Located directly on Kā‘anapali Beach — recently ranked as the No. 1 beach in the United States — the new Maui Brewing restaurant is slated to open later this summer. Maui Brewing will conduct limited operations, slated to start sometime in early August. Ultimately, the restaurant group will also provide its island-inspired cuisine poolside, as well as room service and catering for large events on the resort grounds.

The restaurant will feature expansive outdoor lanai seating, an open-air interior and family-friendly vibe that celebrates the brewery’s history, passion for the craft-beer way of life and of course, its Maui roots.

“Having grown up on Maui’s west side and spending a ton of time in Kā‘anapali makes bringing the ‘craft beer way of life’ here extra special,” said Chris Thibaut, president and CEO, Maui Brewing Co. Restaurants. “Our plans to offer a unique and high-energy beachfront venue for locals and visitors alike are fully underway and we can’t wait to get up and running this summer! We’re stoked to have a second location on the west side, along with our original location in Kahana where our history began. Our original restaurant in Kahana is also slated for remodel in 2024.”

Eventually, Maui Brewing will offer up to 36 craft and specialty beers on tap, including Maui Brewing year-round and specialty releases, and craft beers from other small breweries. The cuisine will feature fresh ingredients that highlight the flavors of the islands, utilizing the abundance of local produce, meats and seafood available in Hawai‘i.

In addition to its stellar, award-winning food and beverage offerings, Maui Brewing Co.’s sustainability initiatives are equally impressive. Solar panels cover the roof of the 85,000-sq-ft grid-independent production facility. It regularly sends spent grain to farms for cattle and even participates in grass roots eco-activities such as creating beach cleanup kits to keep the coast clean. 

Most recently, Maui Brewing announced its transition to new, more recyclable packaging for all their products — not only limited to craft beer but also including Maui Brewing’s Island Sodas, Maui Hard Seltzer, and Kupu Spirits.
