    Not sure if this is the right forum for this. I'm getting married in June and one of my groomsmen is also very passionate about craft beer. He has been talking about needing a good bag or tote to transport 750ml bottles and bombers to bottle shares. I'm wondering if you guys have any good advice on what items are best for this. Preferably one that is insulated.

    I'm also open to any other suggestion as far as what a good gift for this situation would be. I already bought him a Yopener to start things off.

    Thanks

    Some wineries sell a cloth bag which holds 4 - 750 ml of wine in a divided carrier. Obviously this bag is also great for toting 750 ml or 22 oz bottles of beer as well. It's not insulated but makes the perfect carrier.

    Some breweries sell growler/bottle insulated bags for keeping beer cold. I have The Bruery and Firestone bags. But I'm sure that others make them as well. I saw a new FB company making wooden growler/bottle carriers, but forgot the name. I can get you a Firestone one if you need, just message me.
    Cheers,

    One of my local breweries sells 'em. If you want one, let me know.

    I went through this same dilemma not too long ago. Spent a lot of time researching coolers, carriers, tote bags, and growler bags. Originally wanted something to carry my growlers around since I got caught waiting in line for about an hour with about 4 growlers in hand. I couldn't find anything that carried a combo of 64 and 32. The firestone is nice if you have 2 standard 64oz. I eventually happened across http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0006B0M3S/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s02?ie=UTF8&psc=1 and thought to give it a try. Thinking at the very least it would be good for bombers. The best part about it is the bottle separator. Most bags don't have enough cushion between the glasses. It's attached by velcro so you can adjust it as needed. I successfully fit 2 32oz and 2 64oz growlers in it. I even overloaded it with about 9 bombers and carried it around the city. I really can't be happier with it. It's collapsible too and sufficiently insulated.
