One weekend afternoon recently I met a frend for some Mexican food and some lovely beverages. She picked the place, after I asked for something a little funky and not on South Congress or Barton Springs Rd. She came up with a place on South First at Johanna.
I was my customary 10-15 minutes early and while wandering around the parking lot I noticed a billboard.
At first it seemed fairly ordinary: Just Another Beer Billboard. Then I looked a little closer. Note what it says on the can, “Bud Light and Clamato, Chelada.”
Yeah, it’s beer with tomato juice in it (not as gross as it sounds) plus clam broth. So here we have a barely drinkable (IMHO) beer plus an unknown quantity of tomato juice flavored with clams.
Oh and the internet tells me that “Chelada” means beer that has been poured into a glass with salted rim containing lime juice and ice.
People drink this shit?
