If you are anything like us, when you first heard about a Michelada you thought ‘Impossible! I’ve drunk beer in every possible form’. 

Introducing the refreshing, super spicy Mexican drink, made with beer and tomato juice and a whole bunch of optional ingredients (but the more the better). Served chilled with a salt rim, it's like a lighter, sprightlier bloody mary. 

Bon Appetit offers an excellent breakdown and recipe (here) for the Michelada, which we make with McClure’s Bloody Mary Mix instead of Clamato.

Taste the drink yourself next weekend at The Arbory Eatery in Melbourne, where Brooklyn Brewery and McClure's will create an American take on the Michelada in celebration of Good Beer Week.
