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).

Light barley nose, pale gold color, and a fizzy head. Tastes like sweet sugar water with no bitter. Smooth for sure but thin and weak overall.

Their attempt at making natural light worst. Still highly carbonated and yellow.

16oz can = pretty much the same thing as the natural light except it tastes like someone injected grain alcohol in the can. Much more potent than expected.

UPDATED: JUL 17, 2010 Like Natty Light, Ice is very easy to consume. What makes this beer also very appealing is its low price/higher alcohol content. However compared to any other beer this tastes like shit.

Cheap Grains, Hops....Little LITTLE on Flavor. Pretty Even Keel and Easy to Drink. Not a Bad Aftertaste So for What it Is, I suppose It isn’t So Bad.

This is really, really bad. Water tastes far better. How anyone can drink this stuff is beyond me.

Natty ice...too many beer pong games played with this. Pale yellow, white head, aroma of chemicals, corn, some cereal. Taste is got a nasty chemical portion, and some alcohol taste. Not good.

I remember when this stuff came out while I was in college. We were all impressed by the alcohol volume and the price. $3.99 for a six! Well I have since grown up (I guess) and this stuff is crap. What was i thinking buying this stuff? It smells like old medicine and has no real taste. I guess it will get you loaded.
