A white flag with the municipal arms centred.
I am not sure if the white 
flag with the coat of arms is really the flag. It is labeled as such, but it 
seems to be a strange pattern. Official website at

A photo available on the municipal website shows an official stand with three 
flags, from left to right, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil and a white flag, whose 
center is, unfortunately obfuscated by the nice lady standing in front of it. 
From other examples of official stands in Brazilian municipalities, it is quite 
clear that the white flag is the municipal flag of Alegrete, which could, 
indeed, be white with the municipal coat of arms in the middle.
