Bo bristle have them plastic labels that come off in one, the worst are Mountain Man for leaving glue residue and Blacks for disintegrating after soaking and leaving residue, lucky that the beers are crackin' ...!! ;-) took the plunge for some flip tops this week....

Those German flip tops you can get are great and the labels come off so easy too. I quite like the dopplebock.

Tyskie bottles are pretty good - brown glass and the labels come off very easy.  It's cheap too which is a bonus.

Life's too short, and bottles too plentiful to waste time trying to take off really tough labels.
