Today, Kona Brewing Company announces a multi-year partnership with the Association of Volleyball Professionals (AVP), becoming the official craft beer of the AVP tour. The relationship between AVP and Kona Brewing Co. enables fans to embrace their Aloha to its fullest potential while providing unique experiences to all guests. Kona will also bring the Aloha Spirit to each of this year’s AVP tour stops with the “Kona Oasis,” debuting at The FIVB Huntington Beach Open, May 2 – 6, 2018.
The Kona Oasis will feature an open-air bar where attendees can enjoy Kona Brewing Co.’s fan-favorite craft brews including Big Wave Golden Ale, Longboard Lager, Hanalei IPA, and Kanaha Blonde Ale. Bringing the laid-back beach culture to life, the Kona Oasis will be the perfect place for guests to escape the sun for a moment and relax with games and entertainment throughout the tour season.
