From a big honkin’ can. Medium gold colored with a white head. Surprise, surprise, lots of corn with some bread fill the nose. Rotting corn and burning plastic are not pleasant flavors in any situation. This also had a metallic finsh. Easiyl one of the few worst tasting beer I have ever tried.

You can argue that giving low marks should be reserved for beers whose taste provoke a negative reaction. I’d argue that at least such a beer has a taste and you should reserve vitriol for offences against malt such as this gnat’s urine. Only drank this once (UK bottle - freebie) and I still flay myself on a regular basis for absorbing this turd of a beer into my system. No taste, no body, no point.

Corny flavor. Bad sweetness. Medium carbonated, low head. Not long lasting aftertaste. Bit watery.

the sickly young brother of MAXIMUM ice, occupies a confusing spot between malt liquor and cheap beer, but is easily surpassed in this market niche by steelback. max ices flavour likely becomes sickly, but the much quicker intoxication leaves only pleasant memories of the first sips, while regular ice takes too long and you just wonder why youre drinking it

The worlds first ice beer. I first had this beer not in Canada but overseas actually. It was an easy going beer but it had a strange sort of aftertaste I remember. It was in a weird green bottle with an ugly silver lable but I drank alot of it becuase it was the only Canadian beer I could find for that price. Not horrible.

24oz. can. Pours the usual fizzy golden macro hue with a short lived one finger head that settles into a thick collar. The usual macro fizziness, lots bubbles. Aroma is the usual cheap malt, corn, cooked veggie/wet cardboard macro bouquet. Taste is clean, sweet, light malt with little or no hops to get in the way. The flavor is really light & subdued for an "ice" beer. All-in-all, it’s your basic, amped-up macro beer. Good for backyard cookouts, tailgate parties, or like tonight, washing down some takeout Buffalo Wings. The kind of stuff you thought was the bomb as a teenager, but now realize is just swill. If you’re gonna go this route, grab some Molson XXX instead.

It si a high test canadian brew...not as good as a moosehead but superior to the american swill.
