Bivalve Beer

Budweiser & Clamato

How awful is this beverage? Not as bad as you might think. Ignore the sin my brother committed by serving this can of Budweiser Chelada in a pint glass crafted for more refined libations like Lakefront Brewery’s Riverwest Stein. This viscous, slushie of a malted beverage grows on you. The flavor is innocuous. More tomato than beer. Like an effervescent V8. After half a glass, my taste buds succumbed to the healthy refreshment :\ of this shandy. Just accept it for what it is and enjoy it. Like Bruce Willis movies and Michael Jackson’s music. Once the weather warms up, fire up your grill, invite some folks over and make a pitcher of these. While you’re at it, try a lemon-lime shandy or maybe a Monaco.
