The real problem here isn't the bottles making the noise. The problem is throwing them out. If you don't throw them out then you don't have any noise.
In holland for instance, allmost glass bottles are recycled. The bottles have a small sticker on them saying how much each bottle is worth. All the bottles are put into a plastic tray, (like milk bottles are) and taken to the supermarket. At the super market they are fed into a counting machine. This machine counts the bottles and then spits out a receipt.
Once you have finshed your shopping, you take the receipt to the checkout and it is detcuted from your total purchase. It takes a bit to implement a system like this, however once it is going it is very simple to use, it keeps prices of beer down, and it is good for the enviroment. People would be less inclined to break the bottles on roads e.t.c as well.
imagine how much money you could make by having a party, and collecting the bottles at the end.
