Yes, i think all beer companies rewash glass bottles. You can tell that a bottle is recycled when it has braille on it. Brown glass bottles have braille on the underside of the bottle, corona bottles have it at the bottom of the bottle. The braille tells you how many times it has been recycled. For example if the bottle has 3 dots on it then it was rewashed 3 times. Feel your bottle next time, you'll be surprised how many times a bottle gets reused.

It's against the law to reuse a bottle commercially. And, at the same time, it's not worth shipping the bottles back to Europe.

What do you mean that? It's for sure. That's a part of integrated filling system, cause when you put all that glasses on rolling band they go through some steps. One and the first of that is washing with vapor.

i don't know if anyone does anymore. think everyone with deposit bottles crushes them and makes new. kinda wasteful.
