This was about as good as an ice beer can get. I can only think of one reason to drink an ice beer and that is because you are looking to have a serious buzz. Compared to regular Labatt Blue I see no reason to drink the ICE version unless you are looking to get drunk.

Only slightly better then labatt blue. The taste of "ice" is smooth enough, but the aftertase is very biiter. It can give you whiplash. The most redeeming part of "ice" is that it has a higher then usual Alcohol conent and you don’t need to drink a lot of it to get drunk.

From a 1 pt. 8 fl oz (US) can. Poured yellow with just about no head. A kind of yeasty and skunky aroma. Good carbonation and medium mouth feel. But metallic. I managed to get through all of it but I wished I’d bought a smaller sample. Good for getting drunk on a hot, humid day.

ok, this tasted like vegetable soup?! wow, that doesnt make any sense. but then again, this is a labatt product, so anything is possible! YUM! ~puke~

Labatt is a nice tasting beer for just drinking some beer. Nothing special but nothing really bad. But when I came back from Germany vacation and drinking good old German beer I could not drink Labatt Ice anymore for three weeks! No comment!

I often drank this at the Phoenix in Toronto since it was the highest alcohol beer, not because it was good! Has a tiny bit of taste in there, and at least 5.6% alcohol!
