Booze flask?

[BBob]

If you want it fancy, the previously mentioned snow peak round Ti flask. This one has gone on many a trip over the years. A little patience is needed to fill it but @ 63gm it's nice and light.

I use this one full of Stagg Bourbon to celebrate with after the pack out:

A disposable water bottle is the lightest and cheapest option and works great.

I used a Stanley flask on my last pack in. Figured that would last for a nip or two at night for a 5 night trip... Dad brought three stainless flasks.

My Tommy Bahama cigar carrier came with a cigar shaped flask, probably the same ozs as the small airplane bottles. Pairing a good bourbon with a cigar in the backcountry is absolutely the way to go.

I got four of the aforementioned stanleys. Engraved my hunting buddies names on them probably 10 years ago. The oldest member and the father of the other two, pulls it out on random occasions. Its turned into a pretty cool thing. Nippers from the Stanley!!

I got one of these as a wedding present, they are just as awesome as you imagine.

Smart water bottle. The big one.

No sense in not packing in enough to get the job done.

Flasks are to small and only good for amateurs......

I have a stainless steel 8oz flask wrapped in leather, I use it when skiing. Its contoured so it fits in either my chest pocket or pants pocket. Looks pretty sharp with the leather wrap. Amazon $15 bucks, hard to beat.

I have one of these for special trips

Amazon.com

Drop.com usually has the Vargo titanium flask on sale for $50 or so. Has its own silicone funnel for filling and pouring. Great flask, if $50 is in the budget.

Stanley for me.

I’m not a big drinker, but sometimes a flask seems like a cool idea. Long hikes. Backpack trips, etc.

just wondering. Any ideas? I’ve seen very inexpensive lightweight plastic options. But what I’d I want to class it up a bit? Pewter?

Filson makes a pretty classy flask:

Trusty Flask - Dark Cedar - One Size

6-oz capacity, made from food-grade stainless steel.

Weight doesn't matter as long as it holds 16 ounces. I'm stashing it in my partner's backpack when he's not looking.

 

[taggart_lumpy]

i run a snow peak one. best i have found for me.

For function and weight, its hard to beat an empty water bottle, but it's not very stylish.

I'm surprised MeatEater doesnt sell one!

I have this small titanium flask from Amazon. Won't rust or impart nasty flavors to a fine dram and doesn't leak.

I broke off the crappy collar for the cap and replaced it with some steel leader wire and crimps. Couldn't be happier with it.
