Possible cure for the common cold: Hot Coke with ginger. I will definitely make this the next time I'm under the weather. Here's a pic. [Via superlocal]
- #Leche de Pantera: a drink of milk, gin, rum, Cointreau, peppermint and cinnamon, served from some sort of stalacTEAT. If I didn't know better I would swear Josh invented this. [Thanks, E!]
- #I need a soda train in my house, ASAP. I would update this site much more frequently if a train was constantly bringing me new beverages to try.
- #The Morning News has some recommendations on bottled drinks. Fuck them if they think they can horn in on our territory. We've reviewed many of those beverages here, so definitely compare the K4T review before running off to the store. Remember who your bevperts are.
- #Portable alcoholic beverages?!?!? What the fuck next, I wonder.
- #Neat collection of mp3s from pop stars of yesteryear singing variations on the Coke theme song.

These are the end times.
I’ve been telling Josh this from time immemorial!

This is just another attempt at “The Man” to hijack white trash culture (couture?) and commodify it into some branded, lame packaging that of course I’m going to have to go out and buy now.
Clamato is the nector of Hell and back when it was being test-marketing in San Diego and like no where else, I thought for sure it wouldn’t take. I’d call my friends from college and tell them about this monstrosity and they’d laugh and laugh. Cut to 2 years later and their fridge is stocked with the stuff.
But I digress… Shitty beer and tomato juice was ALWAYS the poor man’s Bloody Mary (some call it by other names, but they are wrong)… So I guess it was just a matter of time until Clamato and Bud joined evil forces…
sounds kinda good, though… might have to try it… just the once…

Oh F*#%ing eeeeeeww. Tomato Juice??? Ew. Ew. Ew. Leave beer alone for heavens sake.
BTW can I full out swear here or will my comment get deleted?? It’s ok either way but it’s just alot easier to not have to do those symbol things. Anyways, I’d like to be respectful cuz I like this place and don’t want to be booted.
K thanx!!

I’ve tried this and it isn’t very good. What kills it is the disgusting sweetness at the back end of very sip.
The sharpness of the beer is first to hit your tongue, followed by the thickness and full flavor of the Clamato. But then this “WTF is this? Fruit punch?” kind of syrupiness kicks in making it a challenge to choke down.

From Mexico City south to the Guatemalan border they have been drinking Micheladas for the past 50 years. This is a pretty good imitation. The real deal: Salsa Buffalo, Jugo Limon, Salsa Englaisa, Salted glass, Ice, Corona or Pacifico. Best Budweiser I ever tasted. My favorite beer: Stone IPA. So diss me.
