“For whatever reason I really wanted a burger. We were staying in Kihei so I did a search and found this place. They didn’t disappoint! This is probably in the top 5 best burgers I have ever had. Juicy solid topping parings. I got the wild west and my husband got the dragon you can’t go wrong with either. What Ales You is definitely worth checking out.”
Jen K., April 2022
“The covered patio has a real tropical feel and the live music is great. We didn’t know about the hidden marketplace behind it until it was just about closing time. Very cute! The beer menu rotates but it’s a good variety. The food is great. The dragon burger is delish but be forewarned it has some heat.”

I can confirm that What Ales You is open and the beer is colder and tastier than ever!
Lastly, What Ales You is a stone’s throw from the sweetest easy surf spot in town, so it’s the best place I know of to go grab a pint after a few hours on the water. They have a nice selection to choose form and the bartender was very helpful in making suggestions of his favorites.
