You do not have to specify an IP address for the bridge.
In my case:
mainbr0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr <mac>
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:7328933 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0

tap0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr <mac>
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1

# brctl show
bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces
mainbr0 8000.<mac> no tap0
eth0
eth0 is the interface connected to the physical LAN. mainbr0 ties the
VM's tap to eth0.
