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).

For low budget macro fare this makes a good "red’ beer on a hot day. Red beer= 2 to 4 ounces tomato or v-8 juice in a 16 ounce glass, fill with beer. Drop of tobasco optional.

It’s crap. Seriously, crap, unless you’re a bum or poor. I’m almost to 75 characters.

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!!!

I don't know if anyone thinks this is even good college party beer. I would leave a party if this was all they had.

Come on, this beer does what it does and thats gets you drunk for cheap. Stronger content than a lot of other macros. Is it "good" in the same way the crafts are? No, but sometimes you just want to kick back and relax without all the snobbery of beer tasting. Or maybe thats just me! :) PS. I love Snojerks reasoning!

all ones, then a 10 for this masterpiece..... solely for the reason that freshman dont know the difference and try to drink it as if it were Natural Light then the extra ABV hits and they are destroyed.... yucky nasty off flavors with adjuncts all over the place.

WakeandBake (549) - Greenville, Michigan, USA - JAN 17, 2009
Can. A golden yellow pour,two fingers of fizzy white head. Aroma of cereal grain,cornflakes,and a very faint fruit note.Flavor of corn/rice sweetness, thin body,acceptable mouthfeel,some faint bitterness at the end. spotty lacing.Not as horrible as expected,drinkable and cheep.
