For the most part, yes, kiwi are brown. Some are darker or lighter than others, depending on species, and most are also speckled with white or lighter flecks. Most also have lighter faces and underbellies. The North Island Brown Kiwi, for example, has a thick covering of shaggy, hairy, brown-grey feathers, while the Great Spotted Kiwi, also known as the Great Grey Kiwi, varies from grey to light brown in colour, but its feathers are covered with black spots. White kiwi have been found in colonies of brown kiwi. These white birds are not albinos, but a genetic mutation has simply given them white feathers.
