Kona Brewing Invites You to Hang Ten w/10-Pack of 16oz Cans (Coming This Week)

Exciting news coming from Kona on a new can package called Hang 10:

New package configuration of ten 16-ounce cans hits shelves this week

Kailua-Kona, Big Island of Hawaii, March 4, 2013/mbb/… Kona  Brewing Company’s new Hang-10 Pint Pack will be firing its way onto store shelves this week. The new Hang-10 Pint Pack, named after a classic longboarding maneuver, is a new configuration of 16-ounce cans sold as a 10 pack. The Hawaiian brewery, who recently announced expanded distribution to five new states the Midwestern US, will make the Longboard Island Lager Hang-10 Pint Pack available in all 36 mainland states where Kona  beer is sold. The Hang-10 Pint Pack will be available in better grocery stores, specialty beer stores, regional chains and convenience stores.

The name takes it cues from a classic longboard surfing stance in which a surfer inches or cross-steps his or her way to the board’s nose while the surfboard is propelled by the wave with all ten toes hanging off the edge.

“The name suits our Longboard Island Lager perfectly, and this pint pack gives craft drinkers another occasion to enjoy our Liquid Aloha,” said Kona Brewing company president Mattson Davis. “The Ten-pack occasion is great for small gatherings because you can quickly grab it and head to the beach or barbecue knowing you’ve got enough brews to share. Plus each can is a full mybeerbuzz pint, which means more Longboard per can and more time to talk story with friends and family, like we do in Hawaii.”
