What is the absolute reddest beer one can make using real ingredients and not additives? What would be used? How red are we talking?
 
Here is an SRM chart. These are the colors (you can also go darker) of beer you can make without additives. Technically they are all shades of brown. You can get it to be more of a reddish hue with some fruit flavor extract (like strawberry) but nothing like firetruck red.
