Before you visit Hana Koa
Expect a big, high ceilinged hall with a full bar, and a smaller cocktail lounge in the Moon Room. The Moon Room keeps shorter hours than the Tap Room, so check before you plan on cocktails.
Look at the events page on hanakoabrewing.com before you go, since the brewery sometimes closes early for private events. You can also book a table and order online there.
