Ginger Ale.
The joke “What do you call a redhead in a beer bath? Ginger Ale” is a play on words combining the term “ginger,” often used to refer to someone with red hair, and “Ginger Ale,” a popular carbonated soft drink. The humor arises from the double meaning of “ginger.” In one sense, it refers to the person’s hair color, and in the other, it’s part of the name of the beverage. When a redhead is imagined in a bath of beer, the situation whimsically creates a human version of “Ginger Ale,” combining the physical characteristic of the person (ginger hair) with the context (ale, a type of beer).
