What will they think of next?



So last weekend I went to Washington (state) to visit Allie's brother. I was excited to try all the cool west coast beers that are tough to come by in the NE. I had some cool Rogue brews like the Capt. Sig's Deadliest Ale, which is a tribute to the show on Discovery Deadliest Catch. Also had a very tasty porter called Black Butte from Deschutes brewery. One other that was cool was this unfiltered amber ale called Mac and Jack's African Amber. I realize that Alex may be the only one that cares about this but then I came across the Bud Light in the picture.

Yes, apparently they make a Bud light mixed with delicious tomato based clam juice, with a hint of lime. It is this weird orangey color and has an even weirder after taste. Any of you west coasters come across this stuff? If you do, I would avoid it or try one for curiosity but it is definitely one of the stranger concoctions I have tried.

If you do not have the Clam Light with Lime at your wedding, I will be very sad. Maybe I will order a bunch and we can all shotgun one right before we walk down the aisle with you. Genius.

I am very jealous of your beer tasting. They have a bunch of fine breweries on the left coast.

Clamato is nasty...that is all.

I have heard about that from some friends out here but never tried it. For you beer lovers, free lodging out west at the Sammy's :).

They have that one at Publix.

Woah, really? I can't believe it is anywhere else. I like to think it is a Canadian thing. I can't imagine it will be at Publix too much longer.

Alex said...

The Publix in Bradenton is carrying something Canadian?! Are y'all as surprised as me? ;)

Andrew said...

Everyone should try a Molson XXX, which is Canadian and tastes like a mix of Molson Canadian and a Schlitz High Gravity 40

It sounds gross, but I am compelled to try it. I am sure I can find it up here if I look into it. Mission has been set.
