My experience is here in LA, Micheladas (with an “h”) are spicy clamato and lime beer cocktails and are literally everywhere. Our little bodegas even have styrofoam cups that are rimmed with a mix for you to pour your tall boy Mexican lager can into to make your instant michelada on the go. My travels in Mexico when ordering a michelada vary, mostly by how many gringos visit the region. Cheladas are universally available in Mexico though. Also, michelada means “mi chela helada” or “my iced beer” based on my experiences.

I’m not sure if harp is the best choice for a Radler. Irish beers do have a different taste from German ones. And in Germany, at least nowadays, Radler is not limited to lager but it’s made with all possible kinds of beers. The Austrian Gösser Radler is really popular.

To add to the confusion around shandy, in the UK, the word "shandy" usually refers to a 50/50 mix of beer and lemonade (the sprite-like type). This can either be a lager shandy or a bitter shandy. We also have the lager top, which is a pint of lager but the pull is stopped about half an inch short of full and topped off with lemonade. It's a popular choice for summer, or if you're hungover and would like one slightly easier-drinking mouthful before you fully get back on it.

Black Velvet IS one of my favorite drinks. I agree with Greg, to some extent: the taste is dominated by the bubbly, but I like the rich maltiness the stout gives it. For those of you who haven’t had it, I highly recommend trying it for yourself . And don’t feel too bad about not being able to layer the drink: I haven’t gotten it down either. If you want to try, though, you’re supposed to pour the stout in first, and then slowly pour in the bubbly over the back of a spoon.

@robertwilloughby8050 Год назад

Try a Blanc De Blancs for the Champagne. With Blanc De Blancs being a little lighter than your standard Champers, that should (would?) preserve the taste of the stout a bit more. Unfortunately, that might make your Black Velvet a bit expensive..... but probably worth it!

The michelada is not quite the "mexicana" michelada. To begin with, it is a bit complicated sin the name varies form different regions in mexico and there are lots of different variants adding all sort of stuff from shellfish to gummys. In general you have the basic version which is just lime and salt and maybe a rimed glass with salt, then you have the spiced up version which adds hot sauce (typically tabasco sauce), worcestershire sauce and Magui sauce. Those two are the more common ones, then there is Clamato con cerveza which I think is what the recipe here is taring to make, but it uses Clamato instead of tomato juice (probably in a bigger proportion also), in general we don't really drink tomato juice here in Mexico, we use Clamato instead.

NB the Victorians drank a sweeter champagne, and traditional stouts and porters were quite sweet as well. Todays stouts and champers are much drier. Black and Tan is also used to refer to pale ales with Guinness. Historic note, that up till the 1970's Guinness only employed those of the Protestant faith not Catholica at their Dublin brewery. The Black and Tans were a police militia deployed by the British in Ireland before Independence. They were not as popular as the drink.

So, weirdly, the Clamato version is sold as just a “Chelada”, where the michelada I know has no tomato at all, just all hot sauce.

For the Black Velvet, the stout goes in first, then carefully float the champagne on top. I usually gently pour it over the back of a bar spoon, to prevent it from foaming. Works great for layering.

I'd imagine it's mostly a question of semantics but most of the time when you ask for a shandy in a British pub you'll get 50/50 lager and lemonade. The lemonade being clear and sparkling. You can get a bitter shandy which would be ale and lemonade in the same proportions. A Raddler would be lager and cloudy lemonade. I've never served an ginger beer shandy, but i might try one next time i get an evening off! Please, please, please do not make a shandy with sprite or 7-up. The lime flavours there will not play well with the beer!

"The Mick'Elada" Mental Note from an avid Chela drinker. Replace the Tomato juice for Clamato Original, it isn't as sweet at the Tomato juice. Replace the Tabasco for Valentina, not as spicy but has more depth of flavor. Salt and Pepper on your ice before you begin the mix. A good brand of Worchester Sauce always helps. Fuck that salted rim shit, it just fucks up your mouf'.

When it comes to layering Guinness on things, I don't know how well it will work coming out of a can or bottle, but when we used to pour these through a tap we would place a spoon under the nozzle to help it disperse. All in all the layering was still pretty good on the champagne, and that is a new one for me. Guinness also does surprisingly well with a good Vanilla Bean ice cream too.

@joshmckinney3254 3 года назад

On the pronunciation of the German "Radler": to Americans learning German in an academic setting, high German or Hochdeutsch is often taught to be pronounced with an almost pompous British accent because it helps when trying to associate which vowels make what sound. Just as many British people would pronounce the word 'car' as "kahh" where the 'r' is just ignored, Germans often do the same with words ending with r. Most Germans would also roll the leading R as you would in Spanish. As a southern American and studied German language in college and abroad, I actually go back and forth between the American pronunciation and the proper way of saying it because immediately think of rattlesnakes when you say "raddler".

@robertmoravek6047 3 года назад

Only in the south of Germany (maybe only Bavaria) do people roll the R like in Spanish. Otherwise it's mostly formed in the back of the throat (as if you're gurgeling something) or glossed over as you rightfully said. And the A in Radler is pronounced like the A in Garden.
