So how does everyone do it? I keg so bottling is out of the question, I was thinking of just filling some growlers before I go, but bringing a 5gal corny would be sweet.
I just fill 2 liter soda bottles - then with a carb-cap you can inject CO2 to keep it carbonated. Glass and camping are usually not a good idea.
but the risk of soda sweetness changing your beer increases. bleh.
If you properly clean them you shouldn't have issues, as with any other bottle.
Well, that's not necessarily true. I don't know what the permeability of soda bottles is off the top of my head, but they're not made to be reusable containers. I'm guessing if it is consumed in a day or two there's no big deal, but I still wouldn't put my beer in them.
I have had wine, beer, and soda in these bottles with no effects from the previous batch. I wash them thoroughly with soapy water, rinse in hot tap water, then soak in a bleach solution to remove any stray scents.
