beerlike

Resembling brewed ale

Resembling beer in appearance, taste, smell, or character: The homebrew had a beerlike quality but was technically a malt beverage.

The word describes things that evoke beer without quite being beer—fermented drinks, yeasty aromas, or amber liquids with foamy heads.
