Haven't had it down very long, but the thick wool seems to be of excellent quality, especially for the price.  I wouldn't describe it as brown and beige.  To me it looks tan and light gold with a greenish cast.  Looks nothing like any of the pictures I saw online.  It's a very subtle pattern, not a statement pattern, and would blend with most anything.  The red is more of a rusty red, but blends with all the reds we have, since there's so little of it. Very happy with this purchase!
