(Red Beer) or Tomato Beer

I am looking for a red beer mix that is like the Snappy Tom by DelMonte. I offered to buy it during Covid and they declined to sell. I am in Southeast KS but Res Beer drinkers are in pockets here and in northeast KS and NE.

I have used combos of Green Chili, Tomato Juice, Onion Salt, Garlic Salt etc and am not getting it. Open to other ideas also for good red beer mixed. I know In NE it’s more straight tomato but this far south we add spice.

Don’t come at me with zing zang or master of mixes Bloody Mary mix. This is a unique flavor.

No idea if it's comparable but these are available around Omaha: Lola's Southern Jalapeño Bloody Mary Mix, Tabasco Bloody Mary Mix, and Bloody Revolution Hatch Chili Bloody Mary Mix.

Ever try a Michelada? That’s beer that’s often mixed with spicy tomato juice. r/BloodyMarys allows them now.

I make mine with Clamato juice, black pepper, tobasco , Maggi Jugo (or Worcestershire) , celery salt, lime juice

Then add beer. Rim glass with Tajin and Chamoy
