I usually just like the plastic 6-pack rings for cans, but bottles can be a problem, and not just for the weight. I heard REI has a ^]ƒial beer stuff sack - anybody have one yet?

I have a 1.5L Nalgene Canteen that has the unmistakable aroma of Free State Beer in it.

Just get one of those little kegs. Should only weigh about 8 lbs and when it done, you have a nice bear cannister :)

That would mean it would weigh 41.25 pounds just in beer alone. It said that it serves 55 12ounce cups.

Since it's spherical, it should be a trivial exercise to come up with a harness which could be used to tow the rolling beer ball on the trail. ME's, are you up to the challenge?
