    I am of the belief that in 2003 DFH did caged and corked 120. They also did 120 12 oz bottles that year that had the notching on the bottom with 2003,2004,and 2005. I am pretty sure they did not have the green caps then either.

    In 2004 they had no notching and green caps.

    From 2005 and up I believe they started to date on the neck.

    For WWS I have no way of telling a 2003 from a 2004.

    If anyone can confirm or help I appreciate it.

    2003 120 - both cork and cage 750ml and 12oz. (label notched, plain gold cap on 12oz.)
    2004 120 - no notch, fluorescent green logo cap
    2005 120 - bottle date on neck, fluorescent green logo cap
    2003 WWS - label is notched, copper cap with white DFH logo
    2004 WWS - label is notched, fluorescent green logo cap
    2005 WWS - bottle date on neck, fluorescent green logo cap

    Hope that helps, cheers!
