Seeking Kona Fire Rock Pale Ale in Boston: A Hopeless Endeavor?
If you’re a craft beer enthusiast in the Boston area, you may have found yourself yearning for a familiar taste that seems to have vanished from local shelves. One specific brew that has garnered attention among locals is Kona Fire Rock Pale Ale. This flavorful beer, once quite popular, appears to have disappeared from the scene.
Interestingly, while many cherished brews have gone extinct, Kona Fire Rock Pale Ale continues to be produced. Yet, for those of us in the Boston suburbs, locating this delightful beer has proven to be a challenge. Have you stumbled across it in your local liquor store or favorite pub?
For context, I’m not alone in this quest. Many beer aficionados can relate to the frustration of seeking out beloved beverages that have seemingly disappeared. Popular picks such as Watney’s Cream Stout, Porter Square Porter, Weyerbacher Chocolate Mole Stout, Dogfish Burton Baton, and Noa Pecan Mudcake (the barrel-aged version, of course) have also become hard to find, leaving fans reminiscing about their lost flavors.
If you’ve ever encountered Kona Fire Rock Pale Ale lately or have any tips on where to find it in the Greater Boston area, I’d love to hear your insights. Let’s see if we can revive the quest for this iconic brew together!
