Mexican beer, hot sauce, lime juice, and other ingredients in it. True, I'm not much of a drinker, but that just don't sound very appealing to me.

on my way to work tomorrow.

I like hot spicy food and hot spicy drinks. I like Bud Lite Chelada and Modelo Chelada, so I might try this.

Those are really good. Really good way to liven up horrible beer, in my opinion.

Michelada is all about the savory.

Personally, I don't think they need salt (the Maggi is sufficient) but in a hot climate, salt in the beer is a life-saver.

They're delicious at the end of a hot day with a mess of chilled, boiled shrimp.
