Can't delete remote branches if there is a tag with the same name

I have run into an issue while deleting remote branches on a large repository. The error during the git push --delete command in the console is:
error: dst refspec <branch name> matches more than one
It turns out there is a branch and tag with the exact same name. I found likely reproduction steps and a resolution while googling: https://dzone.com/articles/git-having-branchtag-same-name
