Recommend a hipflask

[Jared]

I don’t know, I quite like your idea of a 5 Litre hipflask.

Shimo Tank 160oz – Snow Peak

This 4.7 litre vacuum insulated tank boasts a large capacity and a one-touch dial plug, allowing the user to pour beer effortlessly with just one hand. Its design enables the main unit to be laid sideways on a table for easy pouring. Not only is it suitable for beer, it can also serve as a...

Funny the conversation came round to giant hip flasks- I got one of these for a quid at a boot sale this summer, an unwanted present: https://www.notonthehighstreet.com/david-louisdesign/product/giant-enormous-hip-flask

Being the classic shape scaled up, the curve happens to fit against my middle perfectly. I intend to braze on some d-rings so it can be worn against base layer suspended by braces. Filled with hot water it will be ideal central heating for frosty mornings picking rose hips, sloes and haws.

Replace that water with mulled wine and I think you’re onto something.

You might like to take a look at hunt flasks, also called saddle flasks. Very often glass inside a leather pouch that attaches to D rings at the pommel of the saddle, traditionally part of fox hunting gear.

Another vote for the Stanley hip flask. I've had the little 150ml version for a few years, it's come on pretty much every camping trip and has been ideal.

I did buy this one the other day.





There maybe a joke in here about potentially having deep pockets but I wanted something fit for picnic use. 1.7l of liquid joy.

That’s one hell of a picnic, I like it.

I used to carry my 'medicine' in a 1L Sig bottle

Thanks . You are invited.

The idea was white wine is only nice wine if cooled. And transporting glass bottles safely to nice picnic spots can be hit'n'miss - so decant into the metal flask and find a nice stream to half submerge it in to keep it chilled.

Thats the idea. practicality maybe different as I change plan and bulk mix cocktails.

Ah, wine, that makes more sense now

I did get a hip fkask for Christmas in the shape of a Jerry can. Cute but I have no need, any use to you?

 

[Keith_Beef]

I have a 1.9 litre Kleen Kanteen stainless steel vacuum flask.

When I was working from home, I used to make a batch of tea in the morning, get down about 3/4 of it by noon and top it up with hot water for the afternoon.

I have a second one that I'm saving for chilled drinks in the summer.

Thanks for the offer, but I’m ideally aiming for a bit more of a traditional one.

So you walk to the picnic site, and crawl home? Are Garden picnics a thing?

Romantic type Picnic Bill.
Babbling brook.
Lambs frolicking in the glade.
Cheese.
Bread.
Charcuterie.
A Little wine.
Maybe a cigar.


No need to rush it. Long summers days take ones time.
