    I've done some searches, and I'm coming up empty. My buddy has a Chimay bag that can hold several 750s, 12 oz bottles, and cans. He is a rep for a distributer, so it was not purchased. I bring beer on the go often and would love something versatile that could hold the things I mentioned, possibly a 32 ounce growler in addition. Does anyone have a good recommendation? I'm obviously not looking for an ice chest. I want something with holders to keep bottles upright and yeast in place.

    Please give me suggestions if anyone has something that fits the bill, thanks in advance!

    If you do, let me know the quality. Looks solid, but I want thick fabric and nice padding.

    I need a good beer satchel. The one I have right now looks like a diaper bag.

    Saw them post it on Instagram, and it was gone a couple days later. I would also like to know more about it before purchasing. Bump someone has to have a good suggestion for this.

    Most stores sell those cooler bags (no dividers or anything) and they will hold a few growlers and bombers. I'll usually use those flexible freeze packs and wrap them to separate them and help keep them cold. Its not perfect, but fairly cheap solution.

    What better camouflage than a diaper bag to hold beer? Nice avatar and name.

    Dogfish Head used to sell a great six pack cooler that I have. It doesn't fit big bottles, but it has a 2-piece freezer pack that locks a 6-pack of bottles firmly in place. I've had it for about 5 years and works great. Looks like they don't sell it anymore, but if you can find something similar.

    the one freezer pack fits between the bottles. the second one with 6 holes slides on top to keep the bottles from rattling around.

    That looks pretty nice for what you use it for, but I'm looking for something completely different. I most often bring large format bottles to shares/picnics/whatever. I'm most interested in something that will "lock" bottles upright and have capacity for a variety of formats (like the Chimay bag mentioned in the OP).

    I know this thread is about bigger carriers but......years ago my wife gifted me a neoprene 6pack carrier. This thing is great, insulates and protects (bottles don't touch each other). Easy to carry and machine washable. I googled it and there seem to be many. I really use the shit out of mine.

    Expensive, but an option...
