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).

This beer is very close to Natural Light. I just tried the Hurricane beer, and it wasn’t horrible, but this beer is closer to the pale lager family. A nice yellow pale lager color. This beer has a decent head that fades away fast. I’d rather chug back on Natural Light. Alcohol smell, and the taste has a very pale alcohol taste. Not a horrible beer, but I am missing Natty if that says anything.

i respect the great amount of science involved in making a drink so tasteless, and yet has abv at near 6%.

UPDATED: MAR 19, 2004 Typical low priced college beer. Goes down decently smooth for being 5.9% and packs a wallop in the head buzz category. When given the choice, go with Keystone Ice which is similar in price but tastes a little better and comes in 30 packs. As long as you don't purchase Beast Ice of Pabst Ice you'll be fine.

Can: I was bit afraid to try this one, fortunately I survived without major damage. Golden colour, medium head. Some hops, mild bitterness; overall far below average.

I can’t believe I forgot to rate this. I have it twice a year - whenever I visit friends who are out of state. Bad stuff but flavorless and will get you drunk!

oh natty ice, how you taste like schlitz ice. no aftertaste, really, it disappears right after you swallow it. it’s watery and the alcohol makes it worth drinking at parties where everyone is cheap and wants to get hammered (i.e. what most of us call college)
