    So I have been seeking a beer that is a certain color ( I know it sounds silly) but in books I have read and pictures I have seen there is this beer that is a beautiful red color but I can't find any that resembles it in the slightest. So does anyone know of a beer that matches this color?

    You'll have to post a picture! There are hundreds/thousands of beers that are a beautiful red.

    Hahaha, awesome.

    In all seriousness, maybe it was some type of dunkel lager? Some of those have a really deep ruby red hue to it.

    Nothing is going to be exactly as the picture, because you have to take the light and intensity of the filter when the picture was taken. But the closest you are going to get is an Irish red, a red amber ale or a Dunkel Lager.

    You need to consider that the pic isn't the actual color of the beer.

    Tough one - not much to work with.

    Suggestion: Find the What Beer Are You Drinking Now daily threads. It's up to 470-something consecutive days now. There's tons of pictures of pours in that daily thread.

    And CaveDave beat me to it - pic might not be an exact representation...

    I would have said BB or Sam Adam's Irish Red.

    Look for beers called Imperial Amber - if you come across Alaskan Imperial Amber in particular, it's fantastic.
