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).

I cant hate this beer too much, it got me through high school. It is really bad and I will probably never drink one again, but it has its place in the world

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.

Slightly shitty corn smell. Clear yellow, thin white head. Tart corn and malt flavor, but finishes soapy with noticeable alcohol. Blah.

Sampled many times at college. Not bad when you drink it if its cold, but sampled warm its horrible. Higher alcohol content is better than Natural Light. Goes down smooth, but still not worth it.

Jan 1, 2009 Another popular canned beer back in the college days. As bad as Natural Light but a bit higher alcohol content. Nothing much to say for it now though. Watery and metallic-tasting.

Can. Sweet grassy malt aroma. Light golden yellow color with little head. Sweet malt flavor - little body. Nothing offensive - okay if you’re looking for a cheap buzz - a better choice than Bud Light.

I don’t know how my neighbors can do this. I’m pretty open minded with what people like to drink, but damn...they gotta have some fucked up sense of taste or smell or something. Just...ugh. I mean, it’s not offensive to look at, and if you keep it at that level then it’s cool. Smell or taste this and the fun is over. A typical clear pale golden yellow pour, with a foamy white head. No lacing, just a quick melt. Green apples, metal, and corn in the aroma. Strange veggie-like sweetness on the palate (sweet onions?), more green apples, corn with a touch of bitterness. Strange that a brewer would devise a process to make a shitty beer even MORE shitty, but..whatever.
