Not a translation error. It was a standard colour before triggerword became a thing. From wiki
Colors A shade of dark brown used to be known as "nigger brown" or simply "nigger";[59] other colors were also prefixed with the word. Usage as a color word continued for some time after it was no longer acceptable about people.[60]
Clothing, shoe polish, dye, thread, paint, and 0f course "Nigger Brown Ale" beer.

New York Times best-selling author Roxane Gay condemned the retail chain, tweeting that dropping the N-bomb on their site was “so far past unacceptable.”

Double standards. Walmart is a acceptable target because deplorables shop there.

But ride a horse while hitting a ball and you can buy top label and NYTimes best selling author won't say "boo".
