I have an odd situation and would love some help. Maybe you know something.
I like filling 32 ounce "Boston Rounds" from my kegs. They work well with my Perlick taps and I can fill a bottle with almost no foam until I get to the very top and then cap on the foam.
I have a half dozen of these bottles, so I can take a quart or two or six to a brew club meeting or down to my son's house ... anywhere where the beer will be consumed in 24 to 48 hours.
Here is a Boston Round for reference.https://photos.app.goo.gl/cTEpQbXQj87t5Aai9
And here's my dilemma. These are easy to find with polyseal caps and they blow. Don't hold carbonation well (black cap on left). Also easy to find with fiberboard liner (middle caps). These blow moreso. The best caps are metal caps with a plastisol lining (on the right). I need 10 or less but need to buy a gross if i buy on line. Or I can buy 10 for $2 and pay $20 to ship them.

Here's my question... do any of you have a local brewery that uses these? Or a LHBS that sells them as growlers? I have neither here in the small town southern US . I'm happy to send you $$ for caps, a padded envelope and postage. Let me know. Thanks.
