Blue Ice is a Lac Glaceian beer produced exclusively within Monte Glacei at Blue Ice Brewery. The beer is made using ice from the local glaciers and a natural blue-green algae called spirulina. It gets its color from the compound phycocyanin. Despite its blue color, the beer itself is billed as a session IPA. "It's quite disconcerting," BIB's lead brewer Lorrna Luca explained while tasting the beer, "because since it's blue, our brains expect a certain note, but, no, we really have here a session IPA, a very light beer, and the flavors of the beer really come through. We can taste that it has a light alcohol content with quite the taste of hops, with slight notes of citrus. And in the back of the mouth, there's a slight taste of lychee. It's quite refreshing."
