Chelada, Budweiser

By JackiOh • June 15th, 2008

I know, I know. It’s Budweiser. But, you know what? I have been DYING to try this beer, but I was afraid I wouldn’t like it enough to drink a whole six pack. I mean, it’s Budweiser and Clamato juice. I’ve never even had Clamato juice! So, when I was at Brewmaster school at Sea Whirl and it was one of my options, I jumped right on it.

When our beer teacher poured it into my glass, the beer was a cloudy red-y/orange, with a small head that quickly dissipated. I don’t have Bloody Marys very often, but when I do, they smell just like this beer. So does tomato soup.

Luckily, I love tomato soup.

Surprisingly, I also loved this beer.

It was salty, but not too salty. The beer taste cut the tomato taste just enough for it to be more than watery tomato soup. I didn’t get a clam taste from it at all. The carbonation is more fizzy than regualar beer, but it was fun and enjoyable with this “beer.”

Now, I wouldn’t drink it at the beach or in other normal beer situations, but it would be a perfect morning after breakfast beer.

Check out the menu my fellow girl on tap, Wooz created just for this unique beer!

I almost can’t wait to get hungover so I can drink it again!

4/5 pints
