Definitely not that bad as the average rate... I expected shit, and maybe that’s why I liked it.

What is ice beer anyway: beer better served colder? I ran into an old Coors Ice friend this weekend and thought I should give the old boy adage: readily available, fun at festivals and in backyard-gatherings, good to look at, nice to taste (and that goes for the beer too) Standard American Corn Ale--God Bless America

I had this beer many years ago at one time when I was too lazy and stupid to write my thoughts. I will update this as soon as I get my hands on this beer again.

Bottle. Pours yellow\gold with a large white head. aroma of sweet grainy malts, and corn. Flavor is smooth, grain and corn, but nothing good.

Pours a light golden yellow color. Aromas of corn, a touch of hops, and little else. Flavor is like any other american lager. I prefer Coors products to A-B or Miller. It was what I was weened on.

Bottle bought in Chicago. Golden colour with a nice big but short lasting head. Weak aroma of grains, litle maltiness and little hoppiness. Flavour is clean and smooth, waterish, some hints of malt, some graininess, touch of malt. Nice label with ice cristals.

As far as Ice beers go, this one was the best I tried. Can’t remember much else, as I had 12 this particular evening....

Pete missed on this one, as did most macros with the ice craze of the mid 90’s. Still, he did have the best effort of the Big 3. The alcohol is almost noticeable, as are the hops. A crisp pinch of rice finishes the sip. I’ll pass next time.
