I’ll give it a .6 and not a .5 because of the alcohol content and because nothing will ever sit at .5, on an even tier as Chelada. Diactyl corn pudding is all I get from shit shit bomb.

Overall Impression: This "beer" (I put beer in quotes because it’s insulting to the word beer to call this beer) is bad. Really bad. Really Really bad. You get the idea. We use to choose this over Natty Light and Natty in HS because at least it has a little more alcohol...
Only for drinking games and pounding, and only if you must.

One of the most low-end beers. You’ve heard of Natty Ice? Well I call it Nasty Ice. This beer is made by fermenting pure skunk sauce and throwing that into a blender along with the malted vomit of teenage party-goers.

Very watery in flavor. Light yellow in color. Good for drinking games. Bitter flavor. Doesn’t go down smooth.

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

Party time! Beer pong and flip cup fueled by the one and only "Natty Ice!" Terrible stuff, but why waste good beer when you’re pounding?!

I’m currently unemployed, so I might as well experience Skid Row...$1.59 for a 40oz at the local gas station. Pours clear with a fizzy white head, much to my expectations. Aroma is of soggy sand in the hot July sun, malt from the asshole of Satan himself, grain, and Windex. Aroma is like a warning siren telling you that it’s time to hit the shelter. Of course I drank it anyway. Taste is like licking floorboards in a dive bar while sitting on a wet hay bail, all the while listening to Tom Waits crooning. Notes of dog breathe, stale malt, viking blood, and compost. Mouthfeel is like drinking gasoline whilst eating mayonaise from under a radiator. The worst thing to come to Frogtown since Hell. Goes down like a Rush Street crackwhore without the smoothness or pizzaz. My $1.59 could have bought me three Homies from the quarter machines, with nine cents to spare for future investments. But alas, I chose to finish the horrid turd instead of using it for watering house plants. I should appologize to the poor plants for saying that. This is the beer that killed Sam Peckinpah.

You gotta have testicular fortitude to drink this on a regular basis. This is not a plesant experience. Mostly geared towards rednecks and college kids, this is a cheap but harsh drunk. Avoid. A better alternative at the same price point is Genesee Cream Ale.
