    I picked up a 6 pack of Zombie Dust at my local bottle shop today. The bottles say it was bottles 3/19. What is weird is that the bottle caps are black (not their normal 3 Floyds caps). I looke at the bottle and it seemed to be a lighter bottle (not as dark of a brown). It could just be me thinking it is lighter because I don't have another older ZD in my fridge to compare the colors of the bottles. Any one else notice this? Again, it could just be me and the black caps are throwing me off and making me look at the bottles closer. The bottle shop I go to is definitely not doing anything shady, I just found it weird.

    Black caps are temporary between a supplier switch.

    Thanks. That's what I figured. It threw me off yesterday when I saw that. I was going to use it in a trade but decided not to because of the caps.

    I noticed the same thing last week when I picked up some Gumballhead. Was thrown off by the plain bottle caps.

    Cool story, me!
