The 6 packs I found in Atlanta all had the pink plastic holders


Interesting....

So true story. The Jai Alai can holders have always been orange that I've seen. That is except for a small pallet of a few dozen Jai Alai cans I spotted on the brewery tour 3 weeks ago. So I asked about the Jai Alai with the blue and pink colored holders. The CCB employee told me the cans were defective in some way like scratched, dented or not completely filled and that the CCB employees got them as freebies since they couldnt be sold. I assumed the different color was indicative of defects.

Thats why my ears perked up when I saw the holder. Sounds to me like CCB has used colors other than orange for distribution and orange at the brewery perhaps..

Mine definitely weren't dented or scratched in anyway.

I was thinking to myself after I poured one the other day that it didn't seem to fill up my glass as much as other beers... I will run a side by side test tomorrow and see if it is indeed a full 12oz

It would be absolutely hilarious if they sent those cans to Atlanta for sale
