JohnBarleycorn (537) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - JUN 21, 2007
Can. Dark gold beverage. Alcohol-forward aroma complemented by boiled white rice and confectionary sugar - not very appealing. Nearly flavourless, with a tiny bit of malt towards the end. About as basic and bland as you can get.

Strangebrewer (524) - Chatham, Ontario, CANADA - FEB 10, 2009
500ml can 5.5% called Genesee Ice beer. Poured pale straw colured with small white head. Moderate grainy aroma. initial sip was metallic. Light cereal flavour. Rather light for an ice beer. Clean finish.

A 24oz can compliments of cheapdark. Thanks…love the size of this can. I also got the black and silver label. I do love the logo in the picture better. Taste, is average of a cheap pale larger. I love the genny and genny light, so this one was what I expected. It was a good tasting beer after teaching a night class at a local college. You can’t beat the price or even taste. There is no balance with this brew, just 5.5% cheap larger coming at you in a 24oz can. How could you beat that?

yarry (465) - Waterdown, Ontario, CANADA - APR 10, 2006
355ml can. 5.9% a/v Pours gold with a foamy white head. The standard. Smells of corn and metal hints. Tastes of the same.. not really a good beer. Goes down alright though, especially after a few

24 oz. can from a plastic hotel cup. Deep golden pour with almost no head. Aroma is quite foul and vegetal...but does have a lager sweetness. Taste is adjunct-laden and seems very industrial. Some off alcohols in the finsh. Thicker than average lager mouthfeel. This is pretty bad stuff.

It taste twice as nice when you puke up Genny Ice. Just like its cousins it is just a macro tasting beer that is there for the sole purpose of getting trashed. Why on earth anybody making over minimum wage would by this stuff other than that is one of lifes great misteries.

Bricks (347) - Delaware, USA - MAY 19, 2012
UPDATED: MAY 20, 2012 99c for a 24oz. Yellow rich swilly appearance. Aroma is like peanut shells, fingernail polish remover and urine. Rough bitter palate. Tastes like the machinery it was processed within, or the nether regions of a robotic skunk. Part of me thinks that this is the first batch of beer they make after cleaning everything.. thus resulting in mega unintended adjunct. Not recommended in the slightest.

SmellGood (336) - Memphis, Tennessee, USA - JUN 26, 2011
Painful...no aroma to speak and even less flavor. Served it’s purpose for a broke gentleman on a hot day. Can’t imagine i would have another one of these so called brews.

Absolutely putrid. I had the Mountain Brew Beer Ice (redirected me to this page). Taste is unbearable in all ways. At 5.5%, it’ll get you to your goal quicker. Choke it down if you can (and don’t have ANY other options).

Hey guys fix this website! Read the can - they advertize 5.5 % ABV It is a real force. In a word, NASTY. 12 oz can. One of the worst ice beers out there. Genesees’ worst offering. This does not belong. A metalic malty taste. Light gold color and a foamy head that sticks around.
