Godawful. I don't really like ANY ice beers anyway, but this thin, cidery, offering just doesn't get it up for me. I'll use the other bottle I have to boil bratwurst.

This is extremely thin. Even less body than a regular light beer. Supposedly has more alcohol.

Like Bud, only drunker. Got a keg of this for a house party, and man this stuff messes you up cause you forget its a little bit stronger. Oh well. Not disgusting, but not good.

The appearance of this beer is slightly better than regular "Bud"..but thats not saying much. The aroma however is terrible like boiled rotten cabbage etc. Again the taste is slighlty better than regular BUD but not great. Mouthfeel is very watery even for an ice beer. Its drinkable if I had to but I really dont have to!

Ah...a nice 32oz. monster of a bottle for a mere $1.49 or something like that! Heh, and it even has the "born on" date--this bottle was born on September 4th, 2003 and drank (well, half of it) on October 8th. The head in a Oberdorfer pils glass built up magnificently, as if it were a dense whipped cream, so much so that it had an artificial reality (oxymoron?) to it. My wife walked into the kitchen and I asked her if she wanted to try some. She said, "look at that color, it looks like piss water!" Indeed, it did, being very pale yellow in a strong flourescent light. The head died quickly, though leaving a trace ring and film for a long time. There was nothing untoward in the aroma; indeed, there almost seemed an ironic hint of sweetness. Drinking it I noticed the watery quality to it. As it warms there is a corn/rice-like streak of flavor, but really more dull than offensive. While there was something sharply "cleansing" about it when cold, when warm there was an interesting confusion of whether this was a dull dry beer or a dull slightly-sweet beer. At any rate, it is dull.
