Is there anywhere to get empty 3L Swing Top bottles? I have seen them used for Stone's Double Bastard Ale and my neighbors Marin Brewing Co. (Belgian Quad). I am sure that other companies use them as well. I really only need 1, but I don't want to pay for a full one at $100+.

Any help here would be great. I am in Sacramento, Ca if that helps at all.
 
2L ones are easier to find.

It has to be at least 3 liters?
 
Doesn't have to be 3L minimum, but I have seen the 3L swing tops used by a couple of different breweries for special seasonal brews so I figured that someone has got to make them.... I mean the breweries have to get them somewhere. I tried contacting one of them without any response. I have seen plenty of 2L's like you have shown.
 
i tried several searches just now. it'd help if we knew what the trade name for those bottles is. i tried everything i could think of. maybe call Stone and/or email a bunch of their brewers? the only thing is, you may have to buy a case of them from a dealer. i've been down the specialty bottle road a time or two. it's bumpy.
