Budweiser Chelada

I was at the corner store one day picking up some beers, when something new caught my eye.

It's called Budweiser Chelada, and it's supposed to be the competition for Miller Chilled. I tried Miller Chilled, and it wasn't too bad. I figured I should give this new beer a shot.

The first clue that this would not end well for me was that "Chelada" is a combo of Budweiser and Clamato.

Here are the results.

The beer.

The trial.

The reaction.

After the first sip you do get used to the bile like taste of this beverage.
From the initial reaction on you are just trying to finish it off as fast as possible (if you like getting really trashed that is, if not then don't even worry about getting past the first impression. on second thought...DO NOT EVEN BUY IT.)

I'd say this beer gets an overall grade of D-, and I would probably never buy it again (unless drunk and mistakingly pick it out of the corner store tub-o-beer instead of regualr Budweiser.)




Total consumption time - 29 seconds.

one of my colleagues here doesn't drink the canned stuff, but orders the real deal when we go across the border to drink. a combination of tecate beer, clamato, tabasco, pepper, salt and a few other things...

i don't really like either one, but the Mexican drink is better than the can for sure.

Sounds like "red-eye" that I saw the logger's in Darrington WA drinking back in the day.
Beer + tomato juice = I'll pass !

Looks like you made a skull cap out your underwear. Perhaps a pair that your mom wrote your name in? Is your name Hurley?

Back in my American Legion bartending days, I often served beer/Clamato mixtures. I think I'd enjoy that much more than say a Bloody Mary. I'm not a vodka fan. You see a lot of granny types drinking this...myself, I see no reason to move away from a good beer, unless we're talking wine or whisk(e)y - but (good) beer is #1.

Not a BM man myself, but I will crave one after I've had lots of beers and good eats but it has to be extremely spicey to the point of downing a ball of fire from the hands of a young Drew Barrymore. Otherwise, I don't want one. Beer has to be quality and I am a fan of the bocks and ambers. I'll drink Bud Light if its going to be a long night of cards, but give me the Shiner Bock as first and last choice.

I’ll bet that at that certain time of the month, Mount Rumplewife secretes prodigious amount of clamato juice.

Will it ever end?

Not until she hits mentalpause.

What beverage does Mt. Rumplewife prefer?

Lemme guess...Diet Beer?

And Diet Pepsi? Fatties usually do dumb shit like that. If you're dumb enough to eat yourself into the mountainscape, then you probably think quaffing a Diet syrup drink will make you skinny, like you deserve.

I'll bet Rumplebeast gets mouth cramps trying to pry that maw open in order to stuff it with food and drink. My guess is that her beverage of choice is a blended mix of Burger King and KFC combo meals consumed intravenously.

I don't know about that. Beer and V8 goes pretty good with an omlette, hash browns and some melon prior to settling down in the recliner for a day of football.
Hmm, not bad....

I my bartending days it was not uncommon to serve "red beer" (beer and tomato juice). Especially during Sunday brunch. It's not a bad combo, especially with a dash of tabasco, and supposed to be good for a hangover.

I don't know about Clamato, though. V8 would probably not suck.

In my neck of the U&L, I've never heard it called a red-eye. Just "red beer." Seen many of them consumed... but not by me, and not if you paid me.

A red eye consists of beer tomato juice and a raw egg. Sayin.

Sounds like a perfect way to induce vomiting. Otherwise, I can't think of a use for it.

Pussies.

It's TOMATO JUICE - and BEER.

What is there to fear?

Has the ceaseless urine stream eroded a channel down the sides of your legs?

Want some PINOT NOIR with that?

I'll admit to doing vodka shooter with pinot chasers.


Long drive from the winery to the store... any port(or pinot) in a storm.

Classic micheladas are okay. This beverage, however, was terrible and I hated it and it was majorly yuck and stuff.

If you like drinking period blood smoothies, then go ahead and drink this garbage.

Well, no thanks, that's why we have YOU. What's next, dangling your ballsack into a blender? I can live without pics on that one, please.
