Looks like ABM and I were once again trend setters, this time with the Cheladas. The folks over at Onion AV Club showed up late to the party with this taste test.
I don't really mind the stuff but I guess that I am in the minority (or the growing Latino soon-to-be-majority). All I know is that as soon as I can find a steady supply in bulk, Chelada going to replace the Colt 45's as punishment for losing bets with guys on the team. Either that or we have a Beer Pong From Hell tourney at Hamilton's.
Read some of the other tasters' reactions after the jump.
- “It looks like beer mixed with menstrual blood.”
- “It doesn’t taste as bad as it looks.” “No, it’s awful.”
- “That is almost incomprehensibly bad. It’s like thin tomato soup that’s gone so rotten that it’s fermented into a vague approximation of alcohol. I can’t even taste the clams, just rotten, foamy tomatoes.”
- “It’s like I drank a shrimp bucket at Red Lobster.”
- “Oh, that’s fucking gross.”
- “It’s like drinking tomato soup. And I would drink tomato soup if it got me drunk.”
- “Can I get a grilled cheese with this?”
- “It smells so much like rotten vegetables.”
- “It has visible, chunky tomato particles in it!” “Beer should not be chunky!”
- “I’m burping pure vile.”
- “Cheap beer blendered with cheap salsa. Where are the cheap chips?”
- “The tasting order goes tomato, then clam, then beer. It’s just that clam juice is really wretchedly awful stuff.”
- “Ever taste MSG plain? It’s like a momentary heightening of your sense of taste, and for a second, your whole mouth tastes bitter and putrid. Reminds me a lot of this blamato thing.”

I have a cold one in my fridge. Nani, Cheese's betrothed, loves the stuff so she may fight for it.
Mark me down as a fan of the Chelada; it's like drinking a beer & eating chips and salsa all at the same time.
I like it. But then again, Im latino. Damn this brown skin and good looks.
