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).

UPDATED: AUG 24, 2004 Harsh and dry. A staple of frat parties where kids are just happy to get anything for what they pay at the door. The drunk you get off this is terrible. Thin tasting.

Haven’t had this in awhile, but got reminded while talking to my friend at Triumph Brewpub in Princeton, NJ (drinking good beer). This is some of the lowest of the low. One of the only beers I now refuse to drink..

Pours a pale yellow color. Smells of sweet vinegary alcohol. Tastes like a cheap malt liquor. Has a weird, sweet alcohol aftertaste. Not good, but everyone should know that by now.

This should not even be considered beer, but I guess for the price it doesn’t matter.

I’m not sure what constitutes an Ice beer. It could be that they are best when they’re cold as ice so that your taste buds won’t be replused. But, this ain’t that bad. It’s just, as the commercial description says, a ’subpremium-priced ice beer’. That’s funny, ’cos I thought everything was premium or maximum strength this days, biggie sized or capitalised. I mean, this is America!!!

not the worst thing I’ve ever tasted but close this one gives the beast a run for its money in the worst beer ever catagory, good alch content, 5.9% not too shabby for musk rat urine.

It tastes good I think, I don’t remember will get you flying after a few, For the cost it’s not that bad.
