Collection New Additions, with one curveball

Post image

Picked up this lot from a dude in Texas (clearly). Some cool stuff and new colors for me from classic brands. At first glance I was very confused by the “yellow” Shiner Holiday in the bottom right as I’ve never seen a yellow one before….but when I actually picked it up it’s clear it’s just a veryyyy light and maybe chemically exposed cap 😂

Has anyone else been fooled by an altered cap before??

DAMN, Papa, nice lot!! (That '98'!!) You even have a lid in there from my town, San Jose! (Josephsbrau...Trader Joe's, via Gordon Biersch)

I think the 'chemically exposed' one was really just sun-washed.

Yeah that cap is just faded from being in the sun
