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).

Why are you people torturing yourself with this beer. If you have to get a cheap drunk, get beast. At least or tolerable. Damn, I’d rather drink Hurricane!! Stop the madness people. This is why the ladies stopped going to your parties Pete, not the music!! This beer isn’t fit for human consumption!!

I can hardly get any aroma. It is more than air, but not much. Thin gold color with a nice white head that attempts lacing. It starts with something, could be very light malt, there’s something sweet in there. The mouthfeel is light to medium. The finish is kind of herbal, if it is hop, it has not got much bitter in it. Kind of a ghastly ending.

Bottled, sample, pasteurised. Pale yellow with fizzed white head, highly carbonated. Quite a sickly aroma, sweet with malt but quite revolting, Presumably a tasteless method to get alcohol into college kids, pretty awful and luckily just a sample of someone else’s beer?

An interesting beer-flavored-water taste. Not really good for anything but parties where the main goal is to become inebriated.

Pretty crappy stuff. Even with the extra alcohol from the ice brewing process, it’s pretty bad.

The head pour was large white and frothy with small-medium bubbles that fully diminished. There was very little carbonation with this beer. The lacing was sparse and the body was clear and the hue was yellow. The flavor was slightly sweet and bitterness was observed. The mouthfeel was light, watery and oily.
