What is the taste difference between Molsons Dry and Ice beers?
The Molson Dry recipe was created to produce a very smooth, clean beer possessing a delicate hop aroma, a smooth finish and no aftertaste. This is done by creating the precise brewing and fermenting conditions required to reduce the amount of residual sugars in the finished beer without sacrificing taste. Molson also uses a special blend of imported “noble” hops added at a critical point in the brewing process to enhance the brew’s hop aroma and deliver a smooth and pleasant bitterness to the beer. The Molson Black Ice recipe was developed to create a beer with its own unique flavour, aroma and bitterness in a beer of higher alcohol content. In addition, Black Ice is brewed using a unique ice filtration process, which has the effect of smoothing out the flavour by removing more of the harshness of certain natural beer tannins. The Ice Brewing process delivers beers of higher alcohol strength without the harsh taste.
