Little Yeoman Cream Ale

Brewed by Little Yeoman Brewing Company
Style: Cream Ale
Cabool, Missouri USA

This and the other two Little Yeoman brews were sent to me by the very generous Brett and Hannah. After doing a little research on this place, it sure sounds like quite the operation. I almost want to make a special trip down to Missouri to check these guys out. Shared in the company of my buddy pfoxyjohn: Pours a hazey orange colour with a large white head(probably because of my shitty pour). Super creamy-go figure- and noticeably malty. It’s got some grass and herbaceous notes on the palate. I was thinking this, although i didn’t say it out loud- I just might pick this over the Spotted Cow if I weren’t from Wisc. There, I said it!

Cloudy orange amber with white head. Smell is malty and kinda boring. Flavor is light cream soda-esque. Mouthfeel is decent - average carbonation, nice creaminess - pretty good. Flavor is creamy.

Rich orange amber colored pour with an offwhite head. Looks very nice and uncharacteristic for the style. Smell and taste is creamy and malty predominantly and goes down with a very smooth finish. Moderate body and light to medium carbonation help make this beer feel like what I believe it was going for. Very much like an alcoholic milder flavored cream soda.

Had this on 10/2/2002. Aroma is a little malty with some hops. Color is a yellow gold. Taste is creamy and malty. Just an ok beer.

Thanks to beerhandy for this. This is a very good cream ale. Pours semi-turbid dark straw with aroma of malt, hops, some florals and fruit. Tastes malty, creamy, fruity, with some finishing black pepper. Very complex, very creamy, and very good. As it warmed, more fruit emerged, and the creaminess was impressive. This one is creamier than the Daisy Duke shorts of a Kentucky cheerleader watching a John Holmes flick.
