An obvious case of "I should have known better"


I love beer. I drink it all the time and as The Coneheads would put it, "In mass quantities." My cold foamy beverage of choice for when I just want to throw back some brew is the old standby, Budweiser. Occasionally I like to add a little bit of the spicy version of V8 to my Bud just for a switch. Recently I was at the local Qwik-E-Mart and saw Budweiser & Clamato Chelada. My curiosity was piqued. This is where the "I should have known better" comes in.

After reading the colorful "BUY ME!" propaganda on the back of the can I was a little worried. Clamato by itself is some vile stuff, no question about it. Just the word clamato incites visions of squeezing that funky fluid inside of a clam into a perfectly good glass of tomato juice. Ew. However, me being me I just figured that beer can fix anything so I gave the Bud/Clamato stuff a try.

Big mistake.

I cracked it open and this smell assaulted my nose. It reminded me of an overflowing dumpster on a hot summer day. How Anheuser Busch captured so many funky smells into one can is something that I do not want to know. Naturally after the aforementioned nose crinkle, I took a sip.

Bigger mistake.

When I say this concoction is vile, I am not doing it justice. It tasted like what collects at the bottom of said dumpster except cold. Not that I know for sure what dumpster water would taste like, I'm just using my imagination.

Needless to say the sink enjoyed drinking the rest of my Budweiser Clamato Chelada with a clorox bleach chaser to wash it down. I wouldn't even flush this shit down the toilet, it's that bad.

Moral of the story? Even if someone pays you to try this, don't.

Bud alone is enough for a 1 flush salute. How anybody calls that piss beer is beyond me.
