COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Busch Ice has a rich, smooth taste with exceptional drinkability and a slightly sweet finish. Busch Ice undergoes Anheuser-Busch’s exclusive ice-brewing process, which takes the beer to a temperature below freezing. This leads to the formation of ice crystals in the finishing process, which help create its rich, smooth taste. Ice beer is rumored to have been developed by accident in Germany during Oktoberfest celebrations. A particularly cold year froze the celebrated bock beers, which are traditionally brewed for spring, and a new taste was noticed by the drinkers.

A bit more of an alcohol kick at 5.9% but that’s about the only redeeming factor you’ll find here. Otherwise, no different from the rest of the mass produced American Standard swill.

I drank 12 of these once, and it’s hard for me to describe the events that followed, except that it wasn’t pretty.
