There are plenty of beers brewed to be red, their blush and burly nature a result of the yeast and malted barley from which they are made. But in taverns of the Nez Perce country, from Moscow, Idaho, to Walla Walla, Washington, red beer means something different: beer mixed with tomato juice (or V-8 or Clamato). The exact proportions for a Snake River Bloody Mary range from an efferves-cent five-to-one, in which the tomato juice barely flavors the beer, to a half-and-half blend reminiscent of a juice-bar smoothie. The garnishes that come in Bloody Marys are anathema. They only get in the way. This is a beverage for gulping. It is drunk for breakfast, lunch, supper, and snacks. Brunch remains a seldom-heard term in red beer country.
