I must ask.

Where does one aquire a 5L bottle? A quick search didn't really turn up much for being able to buy a case of them...

I must admit that, before this thread, the only bottles larger than "magnum" (or double-magnum) that I had ever heard of were the "Biblical Kings and Elders" series of names: Jeroboam, Rehoboam, Methuselah, Salmanazar, Balthazar, Nebuchadnezzar. I wonder how "Imperial" slipped in there (between Rehoboam and Methuselah)?

They are going to let me know for sure that they still have some in stock tomorrow. I will update this post then.

Thing is that I only use my large format bottles at parties and gatherings I attend so I never lose my bottles. They always come home with me to be refilled next time I bottle. And we usually don't finish one of these giants, I just rebottle the left overs into standard bottles or magnums. Folks always get a kick out of the large bottles though. Actually my son threw one away (a double Magnum, 4 standard bottles) after a party he gave and I almost killed him.
