To me that means buy a 6-pack of 12 oz bottles and figure
you're paying $3.10 for the bottles. Makes it easier to
sell to my childbride.

Yes it is rather simple to take labels off of bottles.
At least most of them. Unfortunately some breweries,
e.g., Stone Brewing in Kal-e-forn-ya and Yingling in
Pencil-vane-e-a, use labels I have yet to be able to
remove.

You need to see one of these bottles up close to
understand the problem. Has anyone found a way to
remove these labels?

I dont know what this has to do with home repair, but I have a gripe
about those plastic beer bottles they use now a days. In the old days
during a barroom brawl, you'd bust a glass bottle on some guys head
and he would often stop fighting or pass out. Try that with one of
these plastic bottles and the guy will laugh at you, then knock you
unconscious. LOL

What brand of beer comes in plastic bottles? I have never seen a plastic
beer bottle.

I think quite a few of the commercial brands do. They are brown and
look just like a glass bottle. We had a local rock & country music
festival last summer in a parking lot and those plastic bottles were
all over the place at the end of the night. Maybe they are "optional"
these days. That could have been a mess on that asphalt with glass,
so in that sense they are a good idea. I agree that Miller or Miller
Lite (or both) is one brand. I think they also had Busch Lite.

Actually that's where I got this idea about the barroom brawl, when I
saw a couple guys hitting each other over the head with the empty
bottles, at that festival. Of course they were just having fun, not
fighting, or they would have been made to leave by the cops who were
all over the place.
