Dubbed 'The Hammer', Black ice is another get blasted quickly offering. Not quite as brutally beer-ish as Labatt MAX Ice, Black Ice packs a punch and is NOT for the casual drinker.

This is a unique beer. It is mass produced but it manages to keep its flavor distinct. Goes down very smooth and cold. After taste is a pleasing spicy flavor. The higher ABV tends to sneak up on you with multiple samplings.

Not bad for a strong beer. You can taste the alcohol, but it's not overwhelming. This beer would be a lot better if they cut out a bit of the sweetness.

not one of molson's better products.don't buy black ice for the taste, only buy this if you are looking to get hammered easy.the initial taste of this beer is o.k. yet nothing special but the aftertaste is horrific and lingers for quite some time.this is not a good beer at all ,but if you don't care about quality and just looking to get wasted after a 12 pack then you may want to pick up a case of this.

UPDATED: AUG 9, 2003 heart burn in a can. oddly drinkable, if it really cold it tastes like water. the best econo swill around

unlike other 40's, I find that I am able to stomache this one. Still not special by any means it's the kind of beer you avoid unless pressed (ie. homeless)

Pours out the typical Molson straw yellow color, with a thin, short-lived head. Smells strongly of cheap alcohol, corn, and rotting cabbage. Way too much gas in this beer (read over-carbonated.) Tastes like most other American/ Canadian corn beers. Not much on malts or hops in my book. I used to like Molson products when I was a younger man, I guess my tastes have changed for the better since then. Not my favorite ice beer, by far.

This is a good beer, very similar to labatt wildcat. It's probably the best of the strong beers.
