Comments
Icehouse: When any liquid will do
Icehouse poured out of the can a clear dark gold. The head is pearly white and thick...for a few seconds. It then shrinks to a hint of a ring and next to no lacing. Carbonation also seemed to go from abundant to barely there in no time.
Smell is metal, grass, and dirty water; very sharp high notes up front and a muddled bitterness comes in.
Taste is grass and corn with a hint of bitter before a rush of sweet.
But since there is next to no aftertaste, the taste I didn't like is gone rather quickly.
Gotta chug liquids and this is what's available? Might as well give it a try.
