As the Jewish culture originated in the Middle East, they would technically be an olive/brown color. Those who adhere to the Jewish faith are not necessarily a "color" as it is, in fact, a matter of conversion. Jewish inheritance, that is, decending from Israel (formerly known as Jacob), would have the Middle Eastern look.
Answer:
Jews (Israelites) come in differing skin-tones, heights, and body-types. Our tradition is that the twelve sons of Jacob (the 12 Tribes) were not completely similar to each other in appearance, though none of them was really dark-skinned (Rashi commentary on Genesis 12:11).
Abraham himself came from Western Asia, and since Jews have intermarried very little in the last 3800 years, the answer is that he probably looked like Jews today.
DNA testing of Jewish communities worldwide has shown that they are all interrelated and of Middle Eastern genetics, comparable to the Sephardim today (not African or Egyptian).
