Bottle passed onto me by Jan & Charlotte, at Kerstbier Festival, Belgie Dec 2010, cheers Jan & Charlotte This is one of those beers that sit in your fridge for a very long while next to the opened jar of pickled gherkins that you have somehow never got around to finish, somehow though the Gherkins look more appealing. I’m being hard on this beer because it is difficult to get enthusiastic about it. The fact it is really is so non-descript that one cannot love it or hate it. It’s smooth, golden in colour with white head, lacks bitterness, lacks bite, in fact the flavour just simply departs, watery, thin, not much to this really. A5 A4 T4 P2 Ov8 2.3

Straight up nasty, dude. I drank some tall boys during the Talladega 500 and although I fit it just fine, I still regret it to this day. Leave it on the shelf. If you need a 5.5% beer there are plenty WITH good taste.

Bud ice is one of the better ice beers out there. They should get the Penguin back though.

Pours a clear, very pale amber color. Decent head but disappears quickly. Scent is weak but mostly of grassy grains. Taste is smooth and weaker, but does have some good features that are refreshing and drinkable. Leaves a semi-dry after taste and is decently tasty for a cheap Bud brew.

Original review: 2/7/10. Grabbed a can of this to use in a dip for the Super Bowl party tonight, and decided to finish off the can. Poured into a pilsner glass. This pours a darker than expected gold with a nice frothy white head on top. Retention is zilch and there is no lace at all. Scents of corn mash and sugar. The body is crisp and refreshing, as expected. Flavor is of creamed corn with the subtle sweetness, and buttered white bread. Light bitterness. Huh. Color me surprised. This was actually decent and hit the spot this afternoon. This is one of the better Bud offerings IMO. In a world of light, thin, no-flavor beers, this one stands above with a bit of flavor and body. I’d have it again methinks.

I’m prety sure I could drink this, pee back into the bottle, chill it, and re-serve. Nothing to this beer.

710ml can. Pours with a big fluffy white head of loosely packed foam. A pale gold color, well carbonated with rice and barley aromas is basic. Thin and watery in the mouth with a sweetness on the palate.

40 Bought at shoppers in leesburg. Looks like I just pissed in the glass. Smells like it too. Just corn and funk. What can I say? A half assed review for a half assed beer.
