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).

High Alcohol content and cheap price are always a good combo, but this stuff sucks

I gave it a high overall rating becasue of price. I haven't had it in over 6 yrs, but back in 97 it was only $4.00 for a 12-pack case. I was in college at the time, and it saved me soo much money when I threw parties. I would buy quality beers for the babysitter holders and this... Guess which ones we used for the beer games, and benge drinking and funneling. You got your self the Nauty. The Nauty Ice! Woooo!

Wow... its not like this beer is great or anything, but I’m surprised its only a 1.05. Light gold... thin fizzy white head. Sweet dusty grain. Faint soapy hops. Light aroma overall. Light sweet grain flavor. Light in flavor, low in offense.

12 oz can-pours a dissipating white head and yellow/pale yellow color. Aroma is at first sulfur, then some grain, sweet light malt/corn, some earthy hops. Taste is grain…, finish is metallic/some funk. No Thanks to Joe-jwc215 for sharing.

Drank at Kum and Go in Omaha, NE. Pale yellow with a no persistent white head, aroma is malty, flavor is malty and notes of corn in there and refreshing. Mouthfeel is a quite bitter.

A nice big 24 oz can with a born on date printed on the bottom. The beer poured a golden body with a soapy white head, a little lacing. The smell was a bit grainy and nothing else. Taste was a mild alcohol with a bitterness. Low carbonation and a poor beer.

UPDATED: JUN 2, 2008 A sweetish adjunct and stinky malt aroma. Clear yellow beer with a big white head. The can looks really shoddy - I don’t know how an outfit like AB with all the marketing resources in the world could have come out with such an amateurish-looking can. Now for the amateurish beer... Low bitterness,low flavor. Medium to medium light body, slightly oily texture. Aftertaste is a little tangy, with some unpleasant mouldering bitterness. Low quality, but it is a notch above malt liquor. The things I’ll do to get a last-minute rating in before the end of the month.
