Raided the West Yarmouth Auto Zone and scored three quarts of what appears to be GC green, but I've never seen these labels. All are lot number M030426A. In the photos, the GC green I am used to seeing (these particular photos are lot number M040976ADC1U3150194) is on the left, and the "misfit" labels are on the right.

Notice how long the lot number is on my "usual" type GC quart. On the newly-acquired ones, it is short as mentioned above, and next to the lot number appears: T/W05482 1519. I assume the 1519 is the 24-hour-clock as we are used to seeing with a colon in between the digits.

Any meaning to the T/W numbers?

Visual inspection of oil through side of the bottle appears green in my new acquisition.

Differences in the labels are obvious...I'm just looking for the "why" behind this, and to make sure I got good green!!!

Rear labels (note all of the many differences):

Front labels (a few differences to note):

Oh long-lifed one,

Nothing unusual about your purchase. I have probably 100 qts from these batches brewed up in 03. It is Das Grün. The T/W probably is part of a code identifying the blending facility.

Cheers...
 
Yep..when I tried GC and had a stash of it I had a mix of the labels you are showing.
