On Tap at Liberty Taproom and Grill in SC - pours a hazy orange with a thin white head. Nose of citrus, hops, malt and caramel. Taste is orange, lemon, spice along with the expected hops and malt. Decent pale ale. Not the greatest one I have ever had but certainly not the worst. I would drink it again if I ever get back to this restaurant.

I had one called ’Liberty American Pale.’ Lemony nose, a bit grainy, same in the nose with the grain notes. Not malty enough or hoppy enough for the style for me but okay and drinkable. Broadway at the Beach location.

This poured a clear golden color with a white head. Aroma was very bland, light corn and grasy hops. Flavor was much the same, light citrus and fruit but nothing exciting and very watery.

Pint at the brewery. Very little hop aroma. Malty slightly grainy aroma. Cloudy orange amber with small white head. Assertive hops in flavor with a caramel maltiness. Finish was dry and lightly bitter. I found it a fairly well balanced lightly hoppy pale ale.

At myrtle beach. I thought the waitress said this was Clydesdale pale ale. Light orange color. Slight hop aroma. Weak hoppy taste, good for a lager lover. Is not over the top, just enough personality to let you klnow its hoppy beer. Mild bitter hop linger. Rather mild for an APA.

Sampler @ Liberty: Pours a deep golden color. Tastes watered down with a faint floral hop in the finish. Wholly unimpressive; this is the kind of beer you cook with.

Darker than your usual pale, nice half inch head. It tastes like it wants to be a good pale, but is a weaker "tourist" version. Nice malt backbone. Refreshing, decent.

Tap. Decent hop noes. Good flavor of hops. Very nicely balanced. Not bad overall. Hops linger on the tongue after finished. Great with chili.

All those vacations to Myrtle Beach (01,02,03,04) having those beer Sampler trays at the Liberty, I never saw the Liberty beers on Ratebeer. I’ll throw a few out there from Memory. Good drinking times at Broadway at the Beach. Their Pale Ale was a decent beer with a light Amber color, some sweet malts and a little hops bite at the end. Good Beer

Finally something with flavor! Deep amber, thin white head. Nose had soft tones of citrus, grapefruit zest, and lightly sweetened malt. Decent bitterness up front with a light caramel malt background. Light to medium bodied, soft carbonation, dry, bitter finish. The best of the bunch here, but it’s not sayin much...
