Today we're drinking a beer that I've been wanting to try for a while... Liberty Ale from the Anchor Brewing Company in San Francisco, Kalifornia. Check them out at anchorbrewing.com.
This beer was first brewed in 1975 to celebrate the 200th anniversary of Paul Revere's historic ride. It is categorized as an American Pale Ale and seems to be held in very high esteem by the folks at Beeradvocate.com.
After a long sweaty day I felt like something light and hoppy so I picked this up at my local Publix. This 6'er went for $9.99 and was worth it without a doubt. (Though I do wish good beer was cheaper.)
The beers pours a cloudy golden-amber color and will give you almost 2 fingers of incredibly creamy, sticky head no matter how gently you pour. This smells drifting up are of malt, biscuit and citrus hop, with an underlying hint of sweet fruit. Inviting, to say the least.
Once I tasted this masterfull brew I noticed mostly some light malt and some piney, oily hop up front. The finish was of hop bitterness with a touch of oily hop resin on my tongue.
There are no standout flavors in this beer but it is well blended, well balanced and extremely well made. Considering that it is a west coast pale ale one would expect a whole lot of hops but this brew is not over hopped at all. You do notice the hops more than the malt but the mixture works together perfectly in this instance, at least in my opinion.
The mouthfeel is of a light-to-medium brew. It is smooth and crisp with a slight hop oil aftertaste that never wears out it's welcome and makes this 6.00% abv beer go down smooth as hell. Oh, and it leaves some great lacing too...
Conclusion, this is a kick-ass American Pale Ale. Liberty Ale indeed, it lives up to its name and is a great example of what an all original American beer should be. It is not a complex brew, but a well balanced Ale that is as great for a session as it it is for a hot sweaty afternoon of yard work. Memorable and easy to put down, I call this a Glass FULL. Cheers!

My description upon pouring and smelling was similar to yours, but it tasted rather tasteless to me. Not really a satisfying pale ale if you ask me.
