Flavor Profile and Aroma: Modelo Chelada Sandía Picante offers a bold twist on the traditional chelada with an enticing blend of sweet watermelon and a kick of spicy heat. Each sip is a vibrant medley of sweet, juicy watermelon flavor balanced by the warmth of chili peppers, lime, and classic beer notes. The aroma bursts with a refreshing mix of ripe watermelon and tangy lime zest, complemented by a subtle spiciness that hints at the chili's punch.

Appearance: Pours a slightly hazy, reddish-pink hue reminiscent of fresh watermelon juice. It is moderately carbonated, with a light, fizzy head that quickly dissipates, leaving behind a lively sparkle.

Mouthfeel: Light-bodied with a pleasantly smooth texture and a touch of effervescence. The sweet-and-spicy notes provide a refreshing but lightly prickly sensation, while the balanced carbonation makes it easy to drink.

Story and Accolades: Modelo Cheladas have earned a reputation for bringing authentic Mexican flavors to the forefront, and the Sandía Picante variation takes inspiration from traditional Mexican street snacks that combine fruit with a sprinkle of chili powder. This ready-to-drink chelada is a bold fusion of classic beer craftsmanship and innovative flavors designed to deliver a taste of Mexico in every can. It’s a popular choice for those looking to add a little spice to their refreshment ritual.

Food Pairings: Pairs exceptionally well with street tacos, grilled shrimp, elote (Mexican street corn), or spicy chicharrones. Its sweet and spicy profile complements dishes with a touch of heat or smokiness and adds a refreshing twist to grilled fruits like pineapple or mango.
