Where can I buy these bottles? They're BEAUTIFUL!!!

[naturals]

These Meantime bottles have recently been popping up in bars in London. I've collected a few but at £4.50 or so in a bar and £2.50 or so in the shops they're a little steep. Even going direct to the brewery they're £1.60ish each (though admittedly full!).

Does anyone know what they're called and where I could buy an empty batch? I really fancy doing some exotic Russian Imperial Stouts in them.

The photo gives an idea of what they look like but doesn't really capture their beauty.

Waitrose carry them ... I think, if i remember right they have the metallic label that's a pain to get off.

Could you ask the bars to save them for you?

No, they do a 750ml version which is basically a champagne bottle with a bigger cap on. These are 330ml - just checked with a regular cap and it fits.

Does anyone know the name for this shape of bottle? I don't even know what to Google to find them.

Really love the bottle shape, naturals, horribly impractical, though.
Bit like women really.

Really hope SWIMBO never comes on here. :lol:
