First Rock

To celebrate the groundbreaking of the 2.6 acre site in Kailua-Kona, the KBC brewing team collaborated with original brewer John “Kit” Kittrege and founder Cameron Healy to develop a new beer based on the original recipe for Fire Rock Pale Ale, the brewery’s first production beer. First Rock Pale Ale is a hop-forward, malty ale that pays homage to the beer that started it all for KBC. First Rock (ABV 6%, IBU 65) features Pale 2 Row Premium, Caramel 80 and Honey malts, along with Northern Brewer, Cascade and Columbia hops.
