Assuming you mean the color, not the ecological green, normal brake fluid for most US and Japanese cars is clear when new. Over time in the braking system, it can turn greenish and then red or brown as it ages. This is assuming it was not dyed at the factory. It is possible to purchase dyed brake fluid (ATE Super Blue) for performance/racing applications where the fluid is changed frequently. The idea is that each time you flush the fluid, you use a different color so that you see a change to the new color when all of the old fluid is out.
