Review: Icehouse

Icehouse from Miller Brewing Co. / SABMiller
Rating: D+

Sampled at (where else?) the Miller Ale House in Coral Springs. Might as well review it. One of those nights that $1 pints seemed like a good idea.
Appearance is wholly lacking in any kind of head - so obviously no retention or lacing. Very clear, but an unattractive yellow color.
Smell is light, lagery. Grain, sweet, and a hint of alcohol - this is an "ice" beer after all.
Taste is next to nonexistent. Slight malt, no hops flavor - just a little bitterness - and a faint touch of fruit.
Mouthfeel is light. Looked flat, but carbonation was actually fine.
Drinkability makes me wonder why I'm a beer-drinker tonight - and why I'm at this place again.

Serving type: on-tap
