Bud Ice
Bud Ice joined the Budweiser family in 1994 and goes through an ice-brewing step in which the beer is chilled below freezing so that ice crystals form during finishing. The recipe pairs barley malt with corn, rice and corn syrup, which lifts the strength while keeping the body light. It pours clear gold with a white head that fades fast. Sweet grain and faint corn lead the nose alongside a whisper of herbal hops, and the palate brings mild malt sweetness, a touch of fruit and a clean, crisp finish.
