Newest haul came in yesterday! 95% cruise ready 😎

There are a lot of versions now: tampons, sunscreen tubes, and bracelets!
I have used the first two and they work fine, except the tampons only hold like half a shot.
With the help of some of these , I just put two on my waistline by my crotch area and another two by my chest. ✌️
I don’t drink but my boyfriend used something similar to these when we went to Warped tour and he’s planning on doing it again for the Aftershock festival. If you search “sunscreen alcohol flask” you’ll get a lot of results. It comes with a fake seal to put on it too.
The one he bought leaked but it seems like these ones are good. It’s kinda funny to see somebody drinking out of a sunscreen bottle too lol
Sunscreen flask
Then he just thinks it's weird you're drinking sunscreen.

Most flasks are made the same, they are just re-badged chinese made. Stanley makes a pretty sweet one. I have a sterling silver one which was a great investment. They can be had for like $100 and can be sold for the same at any pawn shop in a pinch or traded for a tank of gas etc... Nalgene makes one also that has a shot glass and a cup built in...

Amazon.
Stanley is widely available, no reason to order from inflated shipping scammers.
for olive oil i use those flexible plastic flasks that are made for smuggling booze, don't see why it wouldn't work for honey too. the 16oz size weighs .4 oz, not sure about the smaller one but it would probably be hard to beat

There's no "bar" just beer kiosks around with like 2-3 draft beer choices.
You can't bring anything in, but that just means you need a flask and $2 for a coke and you're in mixed drink heaven. Security is lax, they'll check bags and that's it. They may have started waving a metal detecting wand, but I really don't think so.
Not suggesting you need these, but I've got them and I've brought them with me to all kinds of events and never even had security give them a first glance, much less a second.
I've been using this and have had no issues with it. Would kinda like a bigger neck of the bottle for cleaning but it's nice in the pocket.
What kind of flask are you looking for? A steel hip flask is obviously the best choice for discreet drinking, as it fits nicely in a pocket and is extremely durable. Theres also something of a market for ornate round flasks, like this one. Some of these can be quite beautiful, but they aren't very good for drinking discretely, as they are ornate enough to catch peoples' eyes and you can easily lose the cap if you aren't careful.
If you're buying something for a real aficionado, though, the only way to go is a proper glass flask. These have the obvious disadvantage of being quite fragile, but they don't contaminate the taste of the liquor like metal flasks sometimes can. If your buddy likes to enjoy his alcohol, I'd say to look for a glass flask with a leather case, something like this.
As far as where to buy them - if you're looking for a steel hip flask or a basic round flask, Amazon has got you covered. If you're looking for an ornate round flask or a glass flask, though, eBay is probably the only place to find them.
I brought these, they never even checked them for the seals lol

It's a kind of collapsible flask.
Don't forget to put these in your bag:

Flasks are great, but your problem on a trip that won't include many social opportunities for drinking is volume. A flask will not get you through a three day weekend. Pack a handle or two in the suitcase, refill flask as necessary. Invest in some disposable ones so you can just chuck them discretely when you're finished with them. These are the ones I use:

These worked all weekend at Bonnaroo. No metal parts and their super easy to just tuck in your waist line.

Here’s a few of the ones I liked the most, if anything I would go with the camera or the hairbrush. I got the power bank one and it’s huge. About the size of a iPhone 7+ with an otter box case on.

Use this. Filled them up multiple times. Tuck it in your shirt/pant leg, and you're good to go. I haven't ever had any difficulty.

Stanley Flask
Get small disposable flask and stuff it in your briefs in such a way that no one is gonna grab it.
https://www.amazon.com/Shark-Skinz-Disposable-Flasks-3-Pack/dp/B00428JORQ
I've got this. It fits in a coat pocket and the opening is great for pouring.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0019D9H3S/ref=wms_ohs_product?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Get a flask that doesn't look like a 15 year old bought it at the mall. I recommend the classic stanley flask.
I guess it depends on your budget, needs, and wants,if you're looking for an end all flask I highly recommend this [titanium flask] (http://www.amazon.com/Vargo-T-447-Titanium-Funnel-Flask/dp/B00NUR3ZE8) it has a funnel attached so it is easy to fill, and it low drama but still nice enough you won't really tire of it, then you have two Stanley flasks [this metal one] (http://www.amazon.com/Stanley-Adventure-Stainless-Steel-Flask/dp/B00VRES8NO) and a [plastic one] (http://www.amazon.com/Stanley-Adventure-7oz-eCycle-Flask/dp/B00EPW5AMC) both of which you can find at Walmart. Out of the two I would recommend the plastic one due to its cost, the fact you can open the whole thing, and it's just no drama but I love my titanium flask.
BOOM!
I prefer a round shape like this one^^

And you could fill it with some Bacardi 8...
With this setup the day is yours ;)
If you only use it for high proof alcohol it will be fine. If you put some kind of high sugar, sticky liquor in there or some other drink like fruit juice, i could see it getting funky, but if it’s booze, nothing is growing in there. Just clean the threads and the cap off every so often and when you switch alcohol, let some soapy water soak inside for a little bit.
Or, alternatively, plain steel flasks are pretty cheap. You could use it for the trip and toss it.
Still, you could go with something like this.

No guarantee they won’t burst if you take a good fall, but you’ll just smell like brandy instead of bloody brandy.

Amazing flask. Extremely durable. I have two. Far better than any of the shit that other guy reviewed. They make the best thermos too.
Not op, but this is the one I have. I'm pretty happy with it.

Get these for an extra layer of security.
It's silly because they typically don't seal sunscreen bottles, but I highly doubt a security guard spending more than a few seconds searching you when there are a thousand people behind you eagerly waiting to get in as well.
What is your price range? I think 5 Yeti coolers would be badass (here). But if that is too expensive, get them some decent knives, like this. Much less expensive, extremely useful, lasts forever. I have my grandfather's that he bought in the 50s. Still fantastic.
Flasks are really good, actually. Get a Stanley flask for everybody (here).
You could also do flashlights, but not everybody would be into that like I would be. Here is my recommendation anyway (here).
Also, try these.
Too much effort.... Just do this
I've had friends have theirs confiscated. So they got creative.
ShampBooze bottles
Sunscreen bottles These worked great for ACL last year!
"Protection" seals
Ice Pak Flask this will be another ACL for me this year
"Sealed" caps for water bottles (Also ACL approved)
Insect Repellant
A whole smuggle bottle kit
And your standards
You can also put anything in a mouthwash bottle, so long as you're not opposed to a few drops of food colouring.

Try this!

For all of you non-alcoholics out there.
you can buy these
Get 3-4 tools;
A Japanese-style jigger or a 50ml graduated cylinder
Ice. (And learn how it is made properly)
A cocktail shaker.
A strainer comes in handy too.
The cheapest way to practice; mix whatever booze you have on hand that is around 80 proof with some form of sugar, (honey, 1:1 sugar-to-water, 2:1 sugar-to-water, agave, Demerara sugar, etc...) and some form of citrus (fresh lime/ lemon juice). Just play around with the ratios of each (booze, citrus, sugar) till you learn how each affects one another.
For beginning bartending, I recommend familiarizing yourself with how alcohol is synthesized, the different distillation processes, and the types of booze from around the world.
From there, look on YouTube.
u/CocktailChem has a nice playlist for beginners called Basic Cocktails
Here is a couple of other playlists for you
The Educated Barfly YT
Steve the Bartender 365 days playlist
How To Drink
United States Bartenders Guild (USBG) seminars
Additionally, look for some books;
Cocktail codex(here)
Savoy Cocktail book (here)
Liquid Intelligence (here)
Smuggler’s cove (here)
Tiki (here)
The Aviary Cocktail Book (here)
Nice! I decided to hold off on the cheers program because it would've been another $1,100+ for my fiancee and I but I did the math and we can still each drink about $50 a day on the boat and still save money VS the cheers program. We also got these bags made especially for sneaking alcohol onto cruise ships lol.
Buy these, the fact that they are soft-sided means they're more comfortable when jammed down your pants. Wear boxer-briefs so they don't fall out the bottom, wrap them in a large ziplock bag so they're not rubbing on your taint/balls, and then hide them in the front or back. The 32 oz may seem too big, but with a little adjustment they fit no problem. Just wrap a hoodie or flannel around your waist to conceal if you put down the back.
Alcohol
I used these with these and they are telling you the same thing I was that they aren't "pretty much the same as shrooms, people saying that one has a full responsibility for their actions.
Just sneak it a camelback. I empty a water bottle and fill it and crumple it. if you want to be a pro get thesehttps://www.amazon.com/Concealable-Reusable-Cruise-Flask-Kit/dp/B01N7SQ74P/ref=asc_df_B01N7SQ74P/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=229280108388&hvpos=1o1&hvnetw=g&hvrand=4139803193378837152&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9031378&hvtargid=pla-383249545393&psc=1
I crotch one of these at every festival I go to. You just need tight underwear, and don't tell the people you share with where it's been.
(They are sold at BevMo)

I use cruise booze smugglers for oil and alcohol in the backcountry. Held up fine for several week long trips and didn't leak at all. Definitely my preferred method after having both spill out of other containers or get leaky around the opening.

I would recommend going for one of these Stanley flasks. They really remind me of camping and I would imagine they would wear really well.
Here you go! Also, bonus camera flask
ok so I can't speak to it's BIFL-nes but my SO just got me this Stanley flask (like the thermos) I've only had it since Xmas but it seems very solid. Just my two cents.
Edit: I did some research on this flask (it was a gift) and it doesnt' sound too good. The walls are kinda thin and could be dented. I guess the rubber gasket(?) can get gummed up if you put anykind of schnapps in there, which could be bad because I put fireball in mine. After a couple of weeks i havn't had a problem yet. . . . yet . . .
I got these "Shark Skinz" flasks at BevMo last year- good alternative to the ziploc bag of booze cause you still have a pour spout. They hide easily with no leaks in your backpack or against your skin. I will probably be buying a few more of these for this year.
Shark Skinz on Amazon
That's what these are for, my dude
Take a look for yourself. They're literally designed for smuggling alcohol.
Not sure if this is what they're talking about but I found this on amazon by searching plastic hip flask. Though I gotta reccomend you just go with a classic metal flask. Like others have mentioned, keeping alcohol in there keeps it pretty clean, plus you can't beat the durability, especially if you're doing a high intensity sport like skiing.
I bought one of these from my local liquor store, it works great and the whole top comes off if you want, making cleaning and filling a lot easier than ss, plus its clear so you can see your pretty bourbon

I've prebatched CR#2 before with no noticeable negative effects. I make them in these and keep them in the fridge until I need them:
http://www.amazon.com/Bormioli-Rocco-17-Pocket-Flask/dp/B003R0GU0E
I have no idea how you would batch a Moscow Mule, or anything with a carbonated ingredient, other than batching the non-carbonated stuff and bringing cold bottles of the fizzy stuff.
Anything that's all alcohol will do well prebatched, and anything with citrus is fine as long as you limit the exposure to air (hence the bottle in my case).
I've also had success with the Blood and Sand and the Maple Leaf.

They will pour it out. Try a sunscreen flask.

My friends tried this a couple years back for cabrewing. They said it lasted the trip, but ate away at the seams and was leaking by the time they got home.

>I bought my (now ex) girlfriend a similar flask. Too small for my uses, but a cool idea.
Somehow (shipping error) I managed to have two of them, so I kept one and now have a 3oz, a 8oz and a massive one as a door prize that holds half a bottle of wine. I don't know why I'd need to put half a bottle of wine in a flask, but knowing that I can...
