Color of bottle and the resulting quality aside, if you really want
the green bottles, you can always buy the Grolsch bottles and get
replacement swingtops which are unprinted from various online
suppliers such as Williams Brewing etc.

That one fits the Grolsch bottles but it's going to get expensive. I
have taken to bottling in clear glass myself as it allows me to see
the interior of the bottles at a glance during cleaning. I don't
worry about the light because after bottling, they go straight into
the case which is then closed and put on the shelf in the basement
until they're needed. My bar fridge light has burnt out long ago and
the bar itself is in the basemsent with no windows, and is lit via
LEDs which produce next to no UV light anyway. As far as I can tell,
the only UV light my beer sees occurs while the barley and hops are
still growing in the fields.
