Boxer Ice
Minhas Craft Brewery

At my lady Pamela's house; canned and chilled, 710mL in a nonic pint glass. From my favourite but now closed The Beer Store on Goyeau St. in nearby downtown Windsor. My first beer from the Monroe, Wisconsin brewery...

Was looking for a new beer to try I bought it without knowning it’s a Canadian beer 1 pint for 3 cad that’s sounds a good deal love the colour the foam really thick and rich taste good can not say the best lager beer I tasted but the fact it’s family owned and no preservatives made me love this beer

I recently consumed a king can of boxer ice on my birthday. From the first sip I knew their was something wrong. Despite the hiss of the can as I opened it, their was a lack of carbonation. It had the sweet taste of malted corn syrup and the aftertaste of the can it was in. I question how something like this got past quality control as this is probably the most foul cheaply thrown together beers out there. Stomach cramps will induce after about half the can and your desire to drink afterwards will only be driven by your desire to wash your palate. Any beer tastes better after drinking this.

 

This beer is aggressively mediocre, but for the price thats about all you could hope for. It is a run of the mill light beer. It does NOT taste like vanilla or cream soda like some of these other reviews are saying. It starts with a slightly rotten wheat-y flavor and finishes pretty smooth... well smoother than you would expect. I wouldn't recommend this beer, but its drinkable. If you lose a bet, this is a good choice if you want to give the victor a revenge beer that is still drinkable.

Drank from a 12 ounce can. Scores are based on the style.

Look - Kinda cheap design, befitting of the cheap price tag. Looks like the local softball team's jerseys. You can definitely tell it's an ice beer because of the ice cubes.

Smell - Very light grains wafting in from a distant wind.

Taste - Cream soda? It's weird. Mostly nothing, but a slight vanilla flavor.

Feel - Light body and strong tingly carbonation. Fairly typical.

Overall - Eh. Mediocre. Slightly higher alcohol and $14 for 36 cans, I guess it's a fine party beer.

Well, I don't mind this beer myself. Of course my taste buds are shot but it's heads and tails above Boxer Lager which is way too sweet and it has a good kick to it. Rarely pour it in a glass but when I have, there's a decent head. Not to little, not too much.

Plus, I'm on a limited income and $17.11 including tax is hard to beat for a 36 pack. Better than Miller IMO.

OK it's cheap, tastes like ice beer,and goes down easy. This is not a beer to think on. I found it on sale for $8.99 for a 36 pack ($.25 a can). At that price it is hard to beat.

710 mL can
Served in a pilsner glass

This beauty pours a brilliant golden color and is topped with several inches of eggshell head that leaves no lacing.

The smell is light grain notes.

It has mild malt flavor. It is extremely clean with a dry finish.

Thin mouthfeel

At $.95 a can how could I go wrong? I would even pay $1 if it was 8%. It is cheap and easy drinking. Great high school kid or college beer.

 

Aroma and flavor is sweetish corn/malts, an odd but expected off funk and tart finish. Not much in the way of flavor at all apart from the off funk.

 

 

Served straight out of the freezer into a room temp Weizen glass..

Pours an apricot golden blonde color, 20% opaque. Tall 4 finger head; eventually it eats away to 1 finger and then finally a creamy ring.

Aroma is wet cardboard, herbs, apple cores, banana peel, corn kernels. It actually smells pretty fresh and clean with character.

A deep malt and straw base starts it off, but quickly fades to corn juice...then cotton candy. To draw a picture - think of a buttered cob of corn dipped in powdered sugar. Some tin follows.

It's rather thick and juicy for an ice beer, but still somewhat crushable. Medium bodied (dare I say), and a carbonated finish.

For a dollar nine it's really not terrible, but I can afford better so obviously I won't be having this again. I still say when and if I'm ever down on my luck, Miller High Life will be my brown bag jam.

 

Worst beer I have ever drank .

Surprisingly good for what people call a cheap beer. In fact I think it could impress in the value department on how good a cheap beer can be category. Golden color, light head, good carbonation, slight sweetness that gives it an almost oak beer taste & aroma. I would put this above a lot of beers. Good value.

 

 

This beer is comfortably in the sh**-category. As evident by the fact that you can pick up a 36-pack for less than 15 bucks. With that said, I do consider Boxer Ice to be on the sh**-throne, as the ruler of cheap beers. Proudly looking over her kingdom of Coors, Budweiser and Pabst.

Very drinkable both hot or cold. Slightly metallic (might be due to the can). However, the sweetness of the beer hides a lot of its flaws. Definitely not something I'll buy to impress someone. But for if you only have $15, and want drinkable quantity, at the lowest possible price, this is your best bet.

Much better than the regular Boxer. Just a surprisingly non-sh**y beer - for being a sh** beer that is.
