One of my old writing teachers, Eric Spitznagel, does interviews for Vanity Fair. I’ve enjoyed them for a while now (he’s mad witty, yo), but he truly outdid himself this month. To read his hilarious interview with Warren G., click here. That’s the wonderful thing.

The awful thing is a beverage mash-up unlike anything I’ve ever imagined in a fever dream.

Clamato juice is tomato juice combined with the great taste of clams. Budweiser is beer that tastes like punishment.

And Chelada is Budweiser and Clamato juice.

Luckily, they also have a diet version (with Bud Light), in case you’re watching your weight but want to drink something cold that tastes like beer, tomato juice and clams.

See ya in the morning!

    Red Beer(beer + tomato juice)is very big in the Mid-West. The year I spent in Nebraska I saw a lot of it. Drank a few myself as well. Very good hangover cure when you’re 20 and drink to excess every night. I did just straight tomato juice. It was an acquired taste, but I like tomato juice to begin with. That makes it easier. HOWEVER, this Clamato stuff is an affront to gastronomy. It’s as if someone tried to invent a portable linguini in red sauce but scrapped the noodles in final production. Blech. Michelob has introduced a bunch of good new varieties lately; Dark Wheat, honey wheat, etc. Budweiser, you should feel shame for this.
