The Bramley I have is green, with only a bit of red showing if you leave on
the tree a long time.  It's a BIG apple, tart, quite juicy.  When dead ripe,
they aren't bad for fresh eating, if you like a tart apple.  I've eaten
Bramley in England and my Bramley looks just like what I had there.
Sounds like you have a mislabled tree.
