I've been trying to find the best way to acquire a lot of bottles. I don't like spending $12/case at my LHBS for empty bottles, I'd rather have some with beer in them for that price!
After sampling many brands, I've settled on any of the brews made from "Red Hook" brewery. They come in a nice box with the protective dividers in between the bottles.
It's easy to restore empty bottles in the boxes, the labels peel right off with little to no work (soak mine for 30 min in a solution of TSP and one swipe with a green scrubby and they're good) no neck lable (wich can be a pain) and best of all, Red Hook has some pretty tasty craft brews.
I can get a 12 pack for $11.99 at Safeway. Half as many bottles as my LHBS for the same price, but then I get to drink some tasty brew along the way. Very much worth it for me!
Hope this helps anyone out there looking for an easy, tasty way for stocking up your bottle supply!
