Ingredients

or other chili-salt blend (optional; see note)
Kosher or sea salt
2 ounces (60ml) fresh juice from 2 limes (see note), half a juiced lime reserved for the rim
2 teaspoons (10ml) hot sauce, preferably a Mexican-style brand like Tapatio (our favorite); see note

Directions

1

Pour Tajin (or other chili-salt mixture) or salt into a small, shallow dish in an even layer. Rub a pint or pilsner glass's rim with the cut side of the reserved juiced lime half, then dip glass into the dish to create a salt rim.
2

Set glass right side up and fill with lime juice, hot sauce, and Worcestershire sauce. Add a pinch or two of salt, fill glass with ice, and top with beer. Stir gently if you want to mix it up a bit. Serve with remaining beer, topping up as you drink.
