The commonest type of vinegar used for pickling is either distilled white or malt (brown). Use white vinegar if you don't want malt vinegar to darken the colour of the pickled items (hard-boiled eggs, whole or sliced onions, and other vegetables, etc). The vinegar used to pickle beetroot would not matter as the strong dark redness of the beetroot would override a malt vinegar.
