SIDH (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supersingular_isogeny_key_exch...) is one of the few popular post-quantum variants of DH key exchange, and it supports forward secrecy as well.

One nice property of ECC pubkeys is that they easily fit into UDP packets, URIs and other very compact data structures. Currently all post-quantum schemes have fairly bulky pubkeys.
SIDH keys are 330 bytes long when compression is used, so they too will fit nicely into network packets.
