355ml can pours a pale golden color with a small white head that leaves virtually no lacing on the glass. Aroma is light grains and hops. Taste is grainy malt sweetness and light hop bitterness. This is NOT a desirable beer by any means and is definitely not recommended.

12oz can poured into a shaker. Pours a clear pale dark gold with minimal head. Very weak aroma. Sweet corn and grains and a little citrus. Taste is light sweet. Citrus, grains and a little skunky herbal hops. Medium bodied with a somewhat thin texture. Lively carbonation but not much of a finish. Overall, it’s ok. There are a lot better crappy "ice" beers out there though. This actually reminds me quite a bit of a High Life.

32 oz can poured into mug. Clear yellow color with disappearing white head and not much lacing. Smells slightly skunky. Aroma is mostly boring: corn, cardboard, metal, but nothing too offensive. Body is light/watery without too much carbonation. Taste is slightly sweet. When I bought this, I thought it might be my first drainpour since Budweiser Chelada/Clamato, but I was able to finish this boring, cheap mass-produced beer and can still type.

Beast ice. Is what it is. Skunky Beast with extra skunk flavor. Blah. Not worth drinking to tick, but had to be sure to tick all my college mistakes. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Poured into a pils glass from a 24 oz. can. 3.5 A: Clear dark yellow color. Two and a half fingers of frothy white head. Retention isn’t too bad and a decent amount of lacing is left. 2.0 S: After having Beast Light, this is a hell of a lot more potent. Usually, bad being more potent equals worse, but I like this one more. It smells less like rice somehow and while it doesn’t do much, it does stimulate a few more receptors in my nose. Very faint graininess. 1.5 T: The taste, however, is repulsive. It has no "beer taste" to it. Rather, it just tastes like polluted rice water. Again a light graininess. 2.0 M: Lighter medium body. Carbonation level is reasonable. Not a lot of creaminess though. Heavy on the tongue. 1.5 D: Bad fucking taste. Serving type: can Reviewed on: 09-26-2012 21:22:16

Can 12 oz and 16 oz. A Miller product and for the money, better than most of their offerings. Can says "ale" but is not. Can says 5.9% alcohol, slightly more than a Heinie. Looks, pours, tastes like a beer, but one make on the cheap, probably corn or rice base. Not terrible, but certainly not great either. Heavy sales volumn due to price. Hey, better than nothing whiltz brownbagging under the bridge, burp! Prosit.

From hazy memories for ratings. It was skunky as hell, and we only drank it because at age 16 we thought 5.9% was such a strong beer. haha. it’s crap

22 oz can to pint. Looks watery with ample carbonation and a shut load of white head. Smells and tastes like was...which is what I’ll probably be pissing out of later. In fact, I should probably be drinking this on the toilet. Just awful.

12 oz can pours yellow with a white head. Aroma of malt and a bit of citrus. Taste was basically the malt. Not good

OK looking but not great, a little white head with some lacing topped a clear, light yellow, fizzy brew. Smell is quite grainy and a little grassy, without a whole lot else going on, other than perhaps a touch of sweetness. Taste is sweet, grainy, with a little grass and basically zero hops. Body is light, well carbonated, with a slick, sweet aftertaste. Overall it’s not my fav for the cheep lager category. Amongst Milwalkee’s best brands, I prefer the light. It’s funny to even have a preference on this sort of beer, but hey, back in the day we drank a lot of this stuff. It’s good for what it’s good for, cheep beer, very cheep. This one is fine in that respect.
