I bit salty for me to consume more than a can of it, but I thought it'd be way worse. Probably more popular in your neck of the woods than most places actually.

Slash hangover fuel.

i can live in a world where tomato juice and beer go together, but add clam to the equation and my dwindling hope for humanity is all but lost. that shit just ain't right, y'all.

Oh, no! Mike's Hard Limeade and gin. Not only keeps the party going, but prevents scurvy AND malaria!

Serious campfire medicine.

Red beer requires beer and any kind of tomato juice product. I wish I could draw a Venn diagram to explain...

Clamato is a recent innovation. It's like a Bloody Mary made with beer. That accords with my experience in Mexico (observing, not drinking; I won't touch the stuff).

It's the thing to drink when you want to show up your 21-year-old friends. They think a 40-ounce bottle of malt liquor is edgy and then you roll up with this delicious nectar like, what?

I like those made at the little plaza cafe across from the Cathedral, which also happens to be conveniently located along a pretty cruisy stretch of pedestrian mall.

There is no standard recipe. The only musts are beer, lime, and salt. Salsa Tapatio is always offered as an option, and only occasionally does one find them made with a bit of tomato juice and salsa inglesa as well.
