...1/2 sours are not bright green....

 

I'm no pickle expert but the half-sours I'm accustomed to are definitely more green than not.

As to the Ba-Tampte's, some seem to feel the same....

 

"First of all, do NOT buy these pickles if they look like the ones in the photograph here. They MUST be bright green, with none of the brownness shown in the photo or the olive-greenness of other supermarket pickles. These are essentially fresh cucumbers, and that's what they should look like.
It's very misleading even to call these "pickles", because they're an entirely different product from anything else by that name - including other refrigerated pickles like Claussen and even other Ba-Tampte pickles on the shelf right next to these - and they require entirely different handling."
