New Beer trend?

Now, I don't drink, so I might not be up on the latest and greatest beer trends. I was shopping at the local Albertson's last night and I needed some beer to boil my brauts in. When I was looking for some beer to get, I noticed these two items.
Now, it might just be me, that looks disgusting. The fact that the idea went through the complete product development cycle at a major company, was greenlighted, and TWO flavors were produced, just makes me weep for our future. Exactly who thought "Gee, Clamato and beer would taste GREAT together!" and why aren't they in a 12-step program?

Believe it or not, my late father would have loved these concoctions. They gross me out, however.

I don't like Clamato, but I do like beer with tomato juice or V8.

Saw the packaging in your picture and looked up "chelada" - here's the wikipedia entry for "michelada":

I'm guessing they may only be available in CA, AZ, NM, and TX...?

You don't know about them because you're white. :) My nana used to drink this nasty stuff all the time. I'm not sure exactly what that says about her, then again, she was a trucker!
