Ola Brew

Hawaiian Ola Brewing Corporation (dba Ola Brew) is a brewery with a focus on ethical and growth-oriented sourcing, working every day to help Hawaii farmers increase their demand by ensuring a guaranteed market for their crops. We’ve successfully grown a brand of over 25 beverages in Hawaii, including beers, hard ciders, and hard seltzers. The growth in consumer demand for hard seltzers has spoken for itself, crushing any projections published over the last two years. That is why our unique hard seltzers have become the flagship product initiating our expansion in the mainland US.
