I'm dying to try TyY but the prices are high and it's not near my house... So yeah, anyplace else with micheladas would be just about right. Tue May 26 21:34:58 -0700 2009 285478 sourcandy 1 4717553 In Newton Highlands, the Biltmore has it. Tue May 26 21:42:51 -0700 2009 4717543 11275 Prav 1 4718014 Casa Romero, in the Back Bay, has Micheladas. Wed May 27 05:48:30 -0700 2009 4717543 193495 rlove 1 4718138 I saw someone ordering one at Angela's although they are not on the menu (or at least I haven't seen them). I am sure anyone with limes, hot sauce, Worcestershire, beer and salt can make one for you! Wed May 27 06:41:39 -0700 2009 4717543 257090 thegirlwholovestoeat 2 4718598 Yes they are quite easy to make- the key is lots of ice and to salt the rim and use lots of lime juice, IMHO. Ole in inman square made me a good one a couple years ago. Wed May 27 09:01:03 -0700 2009 4718138 156718 drbangha 2 4719990 Are we using different definitions of michelada or is the tomato juice implied? Wed May 27 15:52:39 -0700 2009 4718138 17548 BarmyFotheringayPhipps 3 4721603 Micheledas with tomato juice are definitely the most "traditional" but from my experience less often made these days. When ordering in Mexico I have never had one made with tomato juice, and think I prefer it this way! Thu May 28 07:47:44 -0700 2009 4719990 257090 thegirlwholovestoeat 3 4721616 Michelada has tomato juice. Also called a "bloody beer" in the states, and muy refreshing! I've never seen a michelada prepared without. Thu May 28 07:53:02 -0700 2009 4719990 10232 yumyum 2 4726794 Angela's has is on the menu. Fri May 29 18:53:47 -0700 2009 4718138 10820 Blumie 1 4718775 You can get a michelada at La Verdad, but I'd go somewhere else for food. Wed May 27 09:45:55 -0700 2009 4717543 10232 yumyum 1 4723765 I've never had one, but my former babysitter told me that they had "Clamato" in them... which is why I dare not try it.... (I don't do clams- not my thing) But, if its just tomato juice and beer, -- I might try it. Thu May 28 19:32:36 -0700 2009 4717543 16849 cheesehead in recovery 2 4724133 The original michelada does have clam juice in it -- ideally from fresh-shucked clams that you get to eat alongside the beverage, sadly more often from Clamato -- but it's not at all rare to find ones that don't. If in doubt, ask. Thu May 28 23:02:09 -0700 2009 4723765 17548 BarmyFotheringayPhipps 1 4724395 Thanks for all the replies! We've got some options. @thegirlwholovestoeat, while it's true that most bars would have the ingredients, it doesn't mean they will all make them well. Consider that all bars have the stuff to make a martini, but not all bars are known for making good martinis. Can't wait to have some spicy beery action this summer. Fri May 29 05:29:22 -0700 2009 4717543 285478 sourcandy 2 4726169 Just one last thing- Budweiser has a michelada and clamato michelada out. I bought a 24 ouncer maybe a year back sort of as a joke/test of how much they could destroy a tasty concept, and to my extreme surprise it actually was fairly good. I strongly prefer to make my own but if that is impossible its not a bad alternative. Fri May 29 14:44:18 -0700 2009 4724395 156718 drbangha 3 4726714 As a faithful Beeradvocate and CH, fecalface must report that both the Bud and Bud Light Cheladas have Clamato in them, and both receive a D- on Beeradvocate. Not so hot. Based on personal experience, fecal suggests trying one of the hand-made versions at a local establishment. Fri May 29 18:07:07 -0700 2009 4726169 41620 fecalface 4 4853497 We actually just started making our own, which was the way to go all along. Soy sauce, Worcestershire, Tapatio, and lime juice. Mmm. But as far as the Bud Cheladas, I like them. I'm not surprised they would do poorly on Beeradvocate, but they are quite refreshing. However, not a viable alternative for a well made Mich.
