It happened after AB bought them, and actually it was a marketing move. They redesigned all their cans to a similar look to help with brand recognition.

I am confused.
Cigar City is not Florida Beer Co.
A-B does not own either one.
Am I wrong??

Sorry it was a while ago. The rumor was AB was buying them. Actually turned out to be Oskar Blues Holdings.
