Trying to decide why exactly I tried this. Maybe because I was told it was "retired" (discontinued), and just wanted a tick... oh yea, back to the beer. It was horrible corn sweet mess that I’m glad will never have to grace the earth again.
just another average beer from budweiser not much taste easy to drink since it taste like water
I remember having this once at a hockey game. Memory is conflicted on which I liked less....the beer or hockey....A pale gold color. Light foam head that goes fast.Aroma of wet grain and corn. Overly carbonated. A watery flavor of moldy grain or cereal. Not a nice taste.
Bud Ice Light --1996 12 oz. Bottle. 4.00% ABV (2.5 / 5.0) Pilsner--Ice Light
I’ve been looking for this gem for a long time. I didn’t believe it even existed until I found it here on RB. This thing is just such a contradiction. "Ice" = more body and alcohol; "light" = less body and alcohol. Sooooo, if its a Budweiser that is both "ice" and "light", you would think the ice and light would cancel each other out, thus making it a budweiser. And yet, its alcohol and body are less than both a budweiser and a bud light... WTF are they thinking over there at AB/InBEV? Anyways, back to the rating:
it sucked.
Just like Bud Ice, simply with less taste, which is why I gave it an extra point. That’s an inverse point: I rated it higher for tasting more like water than beer. Why do human beings drink this trash?
Want to get stone dead retarded drunk while watching your figure? Well I’ve got the beer for you!
A pale gold color. Light foam head that goes fast.Aroma of wet grain and corn. Overly carbonated. A watery flavor of moldy grain or cereal. Not a nice taste. The aftertaste can’t leave fast enough. I can’t recommend this for anyone, except my mother in law. This beer has the same taste as the regular Bud Ice except less of it. Thats a good thing.
Some things shouldn’t ever be crossed. The streams in Ghostbusters come to mind; so does Bud Ice and Bud Light. This is the beer equivalent of Carrot Top and Paris Hilton having a kid with his looks and her brain. Just say no.
I don’t get it. I honestly don’t understand hy Bud Light and Bud Ice had to come together into this.
Wow, not much to say about it other than it is similiar to Bud heavy. Nothing daring here, just a cheap mass produced beer with higher alcohol content. you drink these to get drunk, not to enjoy beer.
I use to drink you all the time before I knew any better. Now my friend I will never drink you again.
Man nothing like getting some new ratings from the family. A piss pale lager with some corn and adjuncts with grain and vegetative notes. Not very exciting at all...
Bottle. A super pale yellow Pee-pee color with a medium fizzy white head that dissipated quickly and leaves no lacing.Aroma of light corn, alcohol and little else. Flavor is quite watery,corn and other adjuncts,not nearly as good as regular Bud Ice. Lots of carbonation,watery maothfeel,short finish of corn or vegetables.
Surprisingly better than the original. Not as bitter. It must be light on the nasty.
(bottle - 12 oz) Clear yellow with a fizzy white head. Looks like urine in a glass. Aroma is dry, bitter and metallic. Some corn as well. Flavor doesn’t exist save some stale hops and harsh grains. Odd sweetness. Not good.
The only saving grace for the bud ice beers is that the alcohol content is high, to facilitate effective funneling.
Still yellow with a small quick white cover. Standard macro aroma, metal, corn, sweet cereal. Taste is harsh malt then water and metal.
Pours fizzy golden with a white head. Much the same as its big brother Bud Ice only with less alcohol.
Pours yellow with a nice white head. Smells of straw, some appley hints. Tastes sweet and lightly fruity with a dry finish.
It was on clearance so i gave it a shot. It had a skunky taste like an even lower quality Bud Light, but it got me pretty floored
Sampled during Swig-a-Swill Guzzler in St Paul, MN. Pretty much the same as Bud Ice except with more water and less metallic palate. Possibly a good beer entry for Skyview’s Golden Frozen Tankard Award contest.
Bottle. Pours gold. Smells faint, sweet. Tastes of watered down corn grains and semi sweet. Drink it very cold.
This is another clear yellow to the pour with a hint of sweet corn. The tatse is watery and best drank real cold and fast to get drunk.
Bottle. Sour barley malt aroma. Golden yellow color with small head. Creamy barley/roasted corn malt - reminds me of a Tijuana street tortilla (one might consider that good or bad - personally I’ve had some great times there). Strange that the light style has more flavor than the regular. Still, I thought the point of ice beers was to get a higher alcohol level.
i thought bud light tasted like water and then i tasted this shit...if Bud Ice is 5.5% then why did they bring this beer all the way down to 4.1%....
What the hell is the point? Bud Light, Bud Light Ice, what is the difference? Shit is shit and this is shit.
When I was underage and looking to party there was somethign about the Ice that did it for me. It was probably the stuff the deli owner was trying to pawn off on little unsuspecting kids. However can the Ice be any lighter? Do we really need to lighten it up?
This is one of those beers that I wish the scoring system would let me rate lower. I can honestly say they have lowered themselves below the regular Bud Ice. Thin and watery, with that artifical malt liquor sweetness.
Pay no attention to that .5 score above. My real score for this crap is below zero. WAY below zero.
