About This Machine

Ice Cold Beer, manufactured in 1994 by Innovative Concepts in Entertainment (trading as ICE) of Clarence, New York, is a solid-state arcade redemption game — IPDB lists it as "Not A Pinball" — rather than a traditional pinball machine. It shares its name and concept with Taito America's original 1983 arcade game of the same name.

The machine features 12 target holes, two more than Taito's original ten, giving players more opportunities to land a winning shot as they guide the ball up the playfield with a motorized bar. It also adds speech, giving the game audio callouts not present in the earlier version.

Details about this particular machine's specific artwork or theme presentation are not well documented, but as a later take on a well-established arcade concept, ICE's Ice Cold Beer remains a recognizable piece of redemption-game history for collectors and operators familiar with the original.
