Dunno. When I was a kid all of the pop bottles and beer bottles were refundable and refillable.

Pretty sure the returnable bottles back when I was a kid in the 60s & 70s that had 5 cent deposit, on both beer and soda pop bottles, were refillable.

All bottles for pop and beer use to be returnable and refilled. Not sure when and why they stopped doing it.
-
One reason is that they're a cockroach paradise in every grocery, gas station, and convenience store in the country. Another was that the cost both in dollars and in carbon of transporting empty bottles was often more than the cost of making new.

As kids, we'd search for refillable bottles along Lake Michigan shore to earn money for candy and soft drinks.

@SchellsBrewery is one of the finest breweries in the country.
