Still yellow with a small quick white cover. Standard macro aroma, metal, corn, sweet cereal. Taste is harsh malt then water and metal.

Pours fizzy golden with a white head. Much the same as its big brother Bud Ice only with less alcohol.

It was on clearance so i gave it a shot. It had a skunky taste like an even lower quality Bud Light, but it got me pretty floored

Skyview (4738) - Papoose Jct, Minnesota, USA - NOV 30, 2008
Sampled during Swig-a-Swill Guzzler in St Paul, MN. Pretty much the same as Bud Ice except with more water and less metallic palate. Possibly a good beer entry for Skyview’s Golden Frozen Tankard Award contest.

Bottle. Pours gold. Smells faint, sweet. Tastes of watered down corn grains and semi sweet. Drink it very cold.

SkyCop32 (287) - Las Vegas, Nevada, USA - OCT 25, 2008
This is another clear yellow to the pour with a hint of sweet corn. The tatse is watery and best drank real cold and fast to get drunk.

shrubber85 (4841) - Greenville, Indiana, USA - OCT 4, 2008
Bottle. Sour barley malt aroma. Golden yellow color with small head. Creamy barley/roasted corn malt - reminds me of a Tijuana street tortilla (one might consider that good or bad - personally I’ve had some great times there). Strange that the light style has more flavor than the regular. Still, I thought the point of ice beers was to get a higher alcohol level.
