American-made, but nonetheless a traditional 'Flanders-style Red Ale...' |
Red Ale is a sour ale made with different kinds of organisms than the usual sort used to ferment normal beer and ale - and then the ale is aged in oak casks for more than a year, often several years. Red malt is also used to give the beer or ale its color - there are, as you know, several kinds and especially colors, of malt used to make various beers and ales.
Red Ale is also fruity in taste, like plums or raisins, and not bitter at all.
Now although it is commonplace to call thinly-sliced potato chips 'French fries,' they are really more part of Belgian cuisine, and traditionally potato chips, or 'fries,' are served with the 'Carbonnade Flamande.'
I'm not sure whether every wealthy person you meet will know about Flanders Red Ale, but then, there are a lot of things that today's wealthy people are shown and know about by the same token, that the underclasses have very little exposure to - like the 'aero-cowls' on the latest Rolls Royce Dawn convertibles...
