Budweiser and Clamato?

[LaserFreak]

I went to the store the other day to pick up some beer, and glanced at something that looked like Budweiser and Clamato. At first, I thought, no way...Bud and Clamato? Things that make you go "Buhhh"

So I got what I came for and looked a second time, and sure enough, Budweiser has a new "Blend". Clamato and Budweiser. Even comes in Light.

This sounds just totally nasty to me....anybody tried it? Have opinions?

I've observed beer + tomato juice while visiting the Midwest. (Iowa.) I like U.S. Clamato and damn if I can remember the name of the cocktail We used to drink in the morning for hangover-abatement on desert campouts but it involved Vodca or tequila plus clamato plus horseradish + worsterchire sauce.

Clamato in my local market is made in Mexico and IMO is inferior (taste-wise) to the U.S.A product from New York, which I can buy by the case at Smart and Final!

I like Clamato! (Haven't tried it mixed with a beer.)

I'm too afraid to try the combination. Never tried Clamato.

The drink you are thinking of is a ceasar. It is vodka and not tequila.

Beer plus clamato is called redeye btw.

I would choose V8. So I guess that means no.

DUDE... I only heard of this about a year ago. I had a reunion with some college buddies in Portland, OR, and we of course ended up in a strip club for the evening, imbibing "more than a reasonable amount."

The next day we were all hung over and went to a greasy spoon type place for breakfast. My friend ordered a Bud and Clamato. I nearly vomited right there on the spot. But my buddy claim(ato)ed that it was the best cure for a hangover.

I'm shaking my head as I type it.

I've tried beer and tomato juice, beer and Clamato, and Beer and V8. I add some Tabasco to all of them and Worcestershire to beer and tomato juice. They are all good and don't seem so filling when you drink two or three.

I recall this stuff was pretty good poured in your beer.

My brother started drinking beer and tomato juice when he was in the service.As said,its seems to be a A.M. drink after a tough night out. I never aquired a taste for it.

I've had that also with beer. Makes a cheap beer taste good. I do not mix high end micro brewed beer with tomato products, but I bet Fosters would be good mixed.
