This beer got better the more I drank it. Says on the can it’s alarmingly drinkable, or something like that. Well, it is drinkable, and has a kind of wheat-metallic huff to it. Certainly gets you drunk fast enough. When I drink beers like this, I seem to think that I’m in the New Jersey Pinelands or something. 24 oz. can. (Edit: Another beer that gets a 2-point general deduction for inexplicably knocking me off my butt later in the day, even though it was the only thing I drank.)

When I was underage and looking to party there was somethign about the Ice that did it for me. It was probably the stuff the deli owner was trying to pawn off on little unsuspecting kids.

Out of a tallboy can, I now refuse to buy a bottle colored anything but dark brown. Pours darker than a usual American macro pale lager, no skunk smell (thank god) but not much else there either- a little on the pour and nothing afterwards. Not much of a taste here. A little more than Bud Light, a little less than Budweiser. Really nothing to it, but it is refreshing in the same way water is. Not as much carbonation as some other beers, even the Blue Moon I had last night I marked down more for excess carbonation. For what it is, it ain’t bad, but in the whole spectrum of things, it’s trash just like the rest of the American macro pales. I have a Smuttynose IPA to try after this, so this is really just a warm-up brew for me on a Friday night :-D

Horrible. Water mixed with some alcohol and a little kid with a straw blew some bubbles into it.

It’s the most unattractive shade of yellow imaginable, and it’s thin and watery, this isn’t even good lawn mower beer.

12 oz bottle which had an interesting ice look too it. That was the best part of this beer however. Poured a piss yellow, with a white head that disappeared quickly. Not the worst ice beer i’ve ever had, but does have a metallic bite at the end, would make a better 40oz.
