About this beer

Strength
15 °P

Liberty Ale, released in 1975 in San Francisco’s Anchor Brewing, is considered to be the first modern, post-prohibition American IPA. This very original craft beer was hopped with newly cultivated hop variety Cascade and sparked the craft beer revolution. Ever since, American brewers started to push the envelope with beer bitterness and strength further and further. The hop-forward attitude plays both first and second violin in this style. Generous hopping with American or New-World (Australia, New Zealand) hops features citrusy, floral, resinous, piny, tropical or other fruity flavor and aroma. In El Dorado it’s mostly watermelon and strawberry aroma, with ripe orchard pears in flavor. Amazingly pleasing clean hoppy bitterness emerges after the swallowing. The origin of these flavors is in special American hop variety we used: El Dorado. It refers to mythical ancient city full of gold and abundance, which makes it fitting to our golden ale of equally rich flavor.
