Jan 21, 2009 Had this at myrtle beach. Today it was called Liberty Winterfest because we got it in the winter. Hazy orange brown. Creamy head. Slight hop aroma. Nice lacing. Malty medium bitter. Does have many actoberfest attributes but it is on the milder side. Finish is lingering malt bitterness.

Oct 3, 2008 Nice coppery color with a fluffy but not too resilient head. Nice caramel malt sweetness in the aroma. Flavor is amply malty with a balanced hop finish. The alcohol comes through it the aftertaste. Earthy hops start to surface later in the aftertaste. Nice soft pillowy full mouthfeel. A good American example of the style.

Nov 21, 2005 heavier on the malt please. this one was like the first red i had but a bit more toffee feel and sweetiness driving it right into the ground. light body and crispness. too thin for this category. they didnt have a pale ale or ipa on the menu when i was there. what kind of a brewpub are we running boys??

Sep 26, 2005 16 oz draft at the brewery in Myrtle Beach, SC. Pours copper with very little head. Aromas of caramel malts and German hops. Flavor is very malty. Caramel, a touch of nuts smooth and creamy. A little lighter and watery on the palate than I wished it would be. Still a pretty nice pint though. It went very well with the peppercorn ny strip.
