Christmas Beer - Possibly red in color?

I'm looking to start a Christmas beer (probably a little late) for the Holiday season. I would like to try to make something a hue of red. If anyone is familiar with Mad Elf by Troegs in Harrisburg, PA, this is a good example of what I'm looking to make.

They have the base malts on their site, but of course not a breakdown of how much of each. Any one know of a recipe that foots the bill? It doesn't need to be 11% APV either, something around 6% would be just fine.

here is a link to a recipe i had inquired about still have not made it myself wanted to this summer but no time hopefully it is what you are looking for

I may or may not work at Troegs...

You'll need to use cherries to get the red color. It's really hard to attain a color that red without the fruit. That recipe posted above looks pretty solid.

Or use red food coloring like they do with Killian's.

Thanks all... I made a Cherry Wit for a family picnic and the cherries imparted very little color, but a ton of flavor. I used Oregon brand Red Tart Cherries in Water. I used TART cherries as I didn't want my beer to taste like Sam Adaams abomination of a Cherry Wheat beer. What would give it that color? Real cherries or a cherry juice concentrate?

for color...why not just add 2 oz of chocolate malt...makes a nice red ale

We use cherry puree, if that helps. And tart is a good idea. Sweet cherries will make it taste like a bubbly juice box.
