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).

Natty Ice.. what can you say about a high volume american standard? Heartburn in a can. If you want cheap, you can do better than this.

Just thinking about drinking this makes my stomach churn and my arm reach for the desitin. You will wipe more times the following day then you could ever imagine.

Another ice beer from the ice craze. This is just like the rest. Just as bad as the rest.

Keep this in mind while tasting this junk - they call urine natural, too.

Lumpy (1802) - Carrollton, Texas, USA - SEP 9, 2004
Can. Crystal clear light gold body with a thin bubble film. Smells like musty cardboard. Tastes like every other BMC piece of shit you have ever had, with the exception that it leaves a note of vomit on the finish. I could drink this if I was really drunk, but so what? I could drink raw sewage if I was really drunk. And I would probably take that over this swill.

UPDATED: NOV 3, 2010 Clear, pale golden with a white head. Scent is cereal and corn. Taste is corn, yuck.

Drank the first one out of the can, poured the second one in a glass. That was a mistake. The engineers at Anheuser Busch have figured out a way to make this beer taste better out of a metal can with no special lining, than it does poured into a glass. That’s because they know you will be drinking it from that can, without the special lining, mind you. It’s like the perfect lager pour. Its pale, deep yellow with a very vocal 1 inch, white head. There are beautiful bubbles that swirl and keep you mesmerized. The head takes a walk but the carbonation keeps a nice thin, white film on the surface. It only flattens slightly by pouring it into the glass. The aroma is full, grassy malt with a strong hop presence. The body is full and staisfying and leaves the satisfaction of carbonation on the roof of the mouth and the tongue. the beer tastes better ice cold, so don’t let it warm to much before you finish it. The flavor is very hoppy and nicely bitter, and has a nice malty backbone that doesn’t taste too much like the corn this is brewed with. It draws down clean and leaves no film. At 5.9%, satisfaction is sure to ensue, and I dont’ know if that headache I have is from before I started drinking this beer, or because of it. Way to go AB!
