First introduced in 1975, Liberty Ale is brewed with a top-fermenting ale yeast, responsible for many of the subtle flavours & characteristics. Dry-hopping imparts a unique aroma to the ale. Liberty Ale is brewed strictly according to traditional brewing methods, &, like all Anchor Brewing Company products, uses only natural ingredients
- water, malted barley, fresh whole hops & yeast. A special top-fermenting ale yeast is used during fermentation & is responsible for many of Liberty Ale's subtle flavours & 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 the USA today.
