tsarman (794), Northern, New Jersey, USA Aug 11, 2007 Also had this in Colonial Williamsburg. The name is a real odd one for a Lion brew. A decent cream ale, which is not that great of a style. Pretty smooth with a decent amount of hops. faroeviking (3955), Faroese Beer Republic union of, Denmark Jan 6, 2007 Bottle. Bought a case with some good friends in N.Y. city and partied at a hotel along with a lot of Sam`Adams beers. Golden bit hazy colour with a nice average lasting sticky head. Malty and caramellic aroma and hops. Flavour is smooth and creamy, fruity hoppiness, caramel, good malts. Nice aftertaste! For a mass produced cream ale this brew is really tasty. pbjclimber (150), Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, USA Feb 4, 2006 This is a good session beer especially at $12 for a case of 16oz returnables. There are some malt and a little hop flavor and the alcohol is not that well hidden. TheBeerLover (1008), DC Metro Area, USA Jan 25, 2006 Liebotschaner Cream Ale pours to a beautiful, bright,
pale golden color, with a bright and bubbly white head
that fades, and a good bit of carbonation. The nose on
this beer is pleasing, with light touches of pale
malt, some corn sweetness, and traces of grassy hop
aromatics. The palate on this beer is lean, but with
some delicate pale malt flavors, and undertones of
jammy fruit from that warm fermentation. The body on
this beer because it was lagered is very round and
smooth as it goes down. Liebotschaner Cream Ale
finishes with some more subtle pale malt, sweet corn,
and light fruity flavors, then ends with a slightly
sour and grassy edge.
This is an excellent, light, refreshing beer, great
for warm weather quaffing, and as a beer to drink if
you want to knock a few back. It only comes in at
about 4-4.5% abv, and makes a good session beer. You
could match this beer with a lot of different dishes,
but Cream Ale really is a good drinking beer. Its the
type of beer to have in the cooler when you go to the
beach or the park, or a beer to enjoy at a good,
unpretentious bar with a Cream Ale tap. Price on this
beer is right as well, going for as little as $3.50 a
six pack, and about $12-14 a case depending where you
pick it up. This beer is widely avaiable in PA, select
Mid-Atlantic markets, and even in New England. Probiere (992), Iowa, USA May 25, 2004 Pale yellow, some DMS notes in aroma, little head. Mouthfeel is watery and fizzy, like a selzter. Taste is vaguely "beery" like you would expect of a macro but with some very mild fruity and hoppy notes.
