Pours gold with no head. Lots of carb. Sweet corny aroma. Doesn’t taste like rocket fuel. Lots of maltose to fill in the holes. Kind of empty. Trailer-Licious! Dry finish.

| 1.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 2/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | May 29, 2004 This was a stand by when I was 16. Yellow, fizzy white head. Corny, mildly bitter. Thin, and leaves you with a mother of a hangover. Yankovitch333 (612), Chesapeake City, Maryland, USA
| 1.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 2/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Mar 31, 2004 Pours piss yellow with a foamy off-white head. Musty aroma. Lots corn. Thin and watery. Yuck. I hate ice beer. But this one is a little better. dirtymike (2018), Manchester, New Hampshire, USA

| 1.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 2/10 | 2/5 | 2/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Feb 26, 2004 Not what I expected from the producers of some decent macros. Bright yellow, no head, dry, and remarkably bitter. I'm not sure why Labatt exports this to the US, as it is far inferior to Blue and Blue Light, and I am sure they sell little of it. We'd much prefer the stronger, better tasting brews that are sold in Canada. Hopefully the ice beer fad is nearly over with. labattfreak (58), Coldwater, Michigan, USA
| 5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 10/10 | 5/5 | 10/10 | 5/5 | 20/20 | Jan 19, 2004 After looking in about a million different stores, I finally found my Labatt Ice. It was smooth going down, and it had the sweet, heavenly taste that only Labatt's can offer. Leave it to Labatt's to make an awesome ice beer. Heaven in a brown bottle!

| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Jan 12, 2004 Not a bad Ice beer. A little light tasting for my palate, but a good beer all the same. muzzlehatch (4427), Burlington, Vermont, USA
| 0.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 1/10 | 2/5 | 2/10 | 1/5 | 1/20 | Jan 10, 2004 750 ml can, chilled to within 40 degrees of the outdoor temperature -- perfect! I'm giving it a point for the cool black blackground and the nice in-your-face graphics. I dunno, for some reason it feels good in the hand too. Reverie for college? Pours fairly standard medium golden, with one of the largest but least stable heads I've ever seen, rather reminiscent of Dick Cheney's. Stale, old-wet-papers that have dried in hundred-degree heat and been pissed on by a Natty-Light drinking drunk odor. Initial sweet corn syrup flavor provides some bearability as a brackish ditchwater presence takes over. Stale, sour ending. Another winner from Labatt. Sadly the last from this paragon of Canadian brewing that is readily available in VT. MartinT, I so hope you are rounding up rarities for my next trip North!
