/Sounds like "FREE" (as in "free") + "ah" (as in "art")/

Meaning

An ice-cold beer, the most natural way to order a brew in Colombia and Venezuela. When the heat is crushing and you need to cool down immediately, ordering a 'cold one' is practically a sacred ritual.

Examples

Pass me a cold one, it's brutally hot out.

We sat down and knocked back a few after the game.

Regional synonyms

A lame joke or bit of forced humor that falls completely flat. In Mexico and Guatemala, a chistorreta is the kind of thing you say thinking it is funny and then immediately regret when nobody laughs. Think dad-joke energy, but without the charm.
