Brewer's Description: "A special top-fermenting ale yeast is used during fermentation and is responsible for many of Liberty Ale's subtle flavors and characteristics. Carbonation is produced by an entirely natural process called "bunging," which produces champagne-like bubbles. Dry-hopping (adding fresh hops to the brew during aging), imparts a unique aroma to the ale. It is a process rarely used in this country today." Alcohol Content (ABV): 6% Calories: 188 Carbohydrates: Bitterness (IBU): **Stats are based on a 12 ounce beer

I don't know what I was expecting but what I got was nice. Very easy to drink and the hops will keep me coming back for more.

It has a smooth hoppy bite with a hint of coffee and oak notes followed by a nice malty thickness. All of Anchor Brewing's stuff has been impressive.

It's a smooth ale with a nice body and a soft, bitter hops taste that doesn't linger. I had it on tap many years ago and it was even better than from the bottle.

User: PrimeMinister  (35 reviews/ratings)  Added: 04-07-2005 Location: Montreal, Quebec Type: Bottle  Rating: Well this beer is actually considered to be an American Pale Ale and as such it has proper bitterness, color and other characteristics. User: sloshed  (2616 reviews/ratings)  Added: 08-15-2004 Location: Portland, Oregon - USA Type: Tap/Keg Rating: Had this on tap at Clay's Smokehouse. Currently listed as an IPA, but it really doesn't look or taste like one. It is much lighter and not very bitter. An easy to drink beer that I could probably have 8 of before having to switch to something else.
