Historical Community Tasting Notes

Preserved from the RateBeer community archive (circa 2000–2018)

there are different reasons for drinking beer, getting drunk with good friends is one of them. Icehouse is one of the cheepest ways to do so, it goes down like water....I assume because it is, for all intensive purposes, water. until someone makes alcoholic water, this will have to do.
Sometimes, situations require a cheap beer that gets you fed up in a hurry. You can go for Beast Ice or Old Milwaukee Ice, but if youre doing this in public, you can save a little face by going for Icehouse.
This is pretty good beer. I started drinking this due to the gernerous alcohol content and ive grown quite a taste to it. Drink up!
