But I can say that ever since I have been home brewing, (only going into year 3) I definitely do pay much attention to the appearance/presentation. My wife laughs at me because I will pour a beer, then smell it, then take a slight sip, and while I am tasting the beer, I usually hold it up to the light (especially if it is a darker beer) to get a good look at the color. Having said that, I agree with you that the beers I have brewed with caramel/crystal malts have always been in the “shades of brown” arena, and have not imparted any red coloring at all.
