Headmaster glasses in Brisbane

The missus bought some Headmaster glasses in the Vally catering supply shop about six months ago. Unfortunately, having two teenage girls who tend to drop things has meant the glass supply supply has diminished somewhat.
I went back to the shop only to be told they don't stock them anymore. Does anyone know where I can buy them?

The company that makes them does not make the larger version anymore but still make the pot sized ones, my local HBs has them and also has some of the larger ones ( i think they are about 400mls) and apparently the stock they have is the last that they are ever going to have but as far as QLD goes well i cant really help you on that one

(Sobs in remaining glass, adding subtle but still noticeable salty flavour to his current drop.)

Personally I don't like the headmaster glasses. They make your beer go flat prematurely in the glass & if your beer is well made in the first place, it shouldn't need the help of an etched glass to give it head.
Just my 2 cents worth

I don't have problem with head in my beer but I like those glasses and I think they really work.

Yeah it sounds like it

they must know that we are about to be having a big shortage of them down here, as i said in an earlier post- they are discontinuing them and i heard that it was because the company was refusing to make them anymore
