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 an inexpensive hastily produced brew it's not bad. i sure couldn't make thousands of dollars with the brew Ii would produce. kudos to A/B for mixin up a batch of brew for us low budget beer mongers.

Natural Ice is good stuff. Much better than many of the other A-B products. Has as much alcohol as many malt liquors, but a much more pleasant taste and presentation. This is a crisp, consistently good brew. So, what if it’s less expensive? It’s very drinkable, especially from the brown bottles. It’s always on my list. Goes well with dinner. RJT

Natural Ice is the most consistent low cost, full strength beer available. It has better flavor than run of the mill domestic beers. Don’t compare it to Sierra Nevada Ale or Newcastle Brown. Best served with a dram of quality Single Malt. Denise & Jan like it! More bang for the buck.

DOdubble (92) - UVA, Virginia, USA - DEC 8, 2002

Better than natty light, due to the 5.9%. Cheap and gets you wasted, but not as tasty as keystone ice.

I love this beer, its cheap and you can get drunk off of it... That’s what alcohol is for... I’m not saying you can’t enjoy the classy stuff, i’m just saying this is a beer with a purpose and it fulfills its purpose
