COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Natural Ice is brewed with a blend of premium American-grown and imported hops and a combination of malt and corn that lends Natural Ice its delicate sweetness. It then undergoes Anheuser-Busch’s exclusive ice-brewing process, which takes the beer to a temperature below freezing and leads to the formation of ice crystals which create its signature rich and smooth taste.

Characterized by its robust body, delicate sweetness and smooth, rich taste.

The introduction of Natural Ice provided the company with two brands in the value priced ice beer category (Busch Ice was also introduced in 1995).

Why am I drinking this? Aroma sucks, smells like corn I guess, fizzy head disappears quickly. The color is a nice yellow, but I wonder if it’s artificial. Flavor is somewhat metallic, mostly tastes like rainwater. Okay, its not the absolute worst beer I’ve ever had, but it’s pretty close. It gets some overall points for having a decent alcohol percentage and not making me gag when I take a sip.

Violence in a can... that’s how I would describe it because you have to be angry at your situation if your drinking this, mad at the brewer for making it, and irrate at yourself the next day for drinking as much as you did. Light yellow color; corn aroma, watery flavor -- similar to Beast Ice. I give them credit for color... nothing more.

Pours a light golden yellow. Aromas of minor hops, corn, grains. Flavor is light, crisp, watery with a little hop and not much else.

Need to get drunk? Only have a few dollars? Problem solved. This beer was indeed made for poor students, soldiers, and the occasional lucky bum. Bottoms up friends!

Ahhh, Natty Ice. Metal that has been liquified and thinned. Among the worst beverages ever conceived, price be damned.

Oh god oh god oh god. Humans should not be aloud to consume such garbage. This is cheap, nasty, and should be burned. I bought a 4 pack of tall boys for 3 bucks. And I was just trying to mash these down my throat because they were so awful, and I was broke and in the mood to get smashed. Well guess what, I nearly vommited by the second can. God o’ mighty don’t buy this beer.

It’s not that great of a beverage, but for a Natural (brand) it’s a lot better than I thought it would be (as in it’ll get you drunk a lot faster).
