The Clam! Oh for the love of Lucifer, The Clam!

In the "booze box" section at the end of the cooler at my local petrol station they've begun stocking a large can of what is labeled "chelada". This concoction bu anheiser busch is a mixture of Budweiser (blech) and Clamato (bluh) with lime (YUM) and salt (ACK). Now... I've heard of Chelada before. I've always known it as a beer with lime and salt with something spicey mixed in. hot sauce or something. Tomatoe juice with a shot of tobasco or worstershire is odd but drinkable.
the introduction of tomatoe juice laced with CLAM JUICES... that's down right lovecraftian.
Yes Lovecraftian is a word. I just used it.

So, as curious as a pooka on sunday (despite it being friday) I fought the urge to buy and subsequently try this dubious mix.

until tonight.
Perhaps it's my sleep deprived brain telling me aww come on TRY IT. Perhaps it's the fact meg is away for the week end and with out her I've no good sense to avoid the shell fish liquor combination. Perhaps the jaunty can looked appealing more than usual to me. doesn't matter, I bought it, open ed it, and am at this moment trying to drink it.

While not something I'd drink often (or possibly again) this is potable.
I'm not dying. Yet.
