Transporting home brew
Hello I was wanting to take some home brew over to a friends but am afraid the sediment on the bottom of the bottle will get all mixed up.
Put the bottles in a 6 pack holder so they stay upright in the car and you should be fine. Even if they do get bumped around a bit, the yeast is actually good for you and there's nothing to worry about.
It's no big deal.....if it looks that bad, put them in the fridge for 15 to settle out a bit....
Thanks alot for the info.
Do you remember that episode of MacGuyver where he helps some friends put out an oil rig fire? They needed to transport some old and unstable crates of dynamite down the side of a mountain road in the bed of an old army truck. (This was during the first season actually).
In the bed of the truck he lined it with straw and sand. He erected a platform balanced on 4 old truck springs and put the crates of dynamite on top of that to cushion the vibrations.
That's how I take bottle homebrew to friends. Put on your hazard lights and drive real slow! Don't forget the sand, springs and platform!
MacGuyver Rules!!!!
I like the episode where has to escape the science lab where a friend did some secret work, He got caught, and locked away with said friend in a janitors closet. The bad guys set a big bomb, and ran away. Good Ol' Mac simply grabbed a paper clip, some chewing gum, 3 spider legs, a broken pencil, a broomstick, and some common household cleaners...they were locked in a janitors closet, remember? Then he works his magic, and boom the door opens! And with only seconds to spare...Big mac and his friend escaped right before the bomb goes boom, and then he caught the bad guy.....I think Pete Thronton said, "Good Job, Mac!"
Yeah, that show was cool....
I am more concerned with driving a growler or 22oz bottle plugged with a wine stopper and filled with my kegged homebrew. Technically, that is an open container.

Perfect!
Of course, but the question is - What kind of brew would MacGuyver do?
Sorry about the hijack Deno, but this is important.
Well I guess Macgyuver would brew what ever he had to brew with.
He'd grab a watermelon, some tissue paper and some antifreezer....three weeks later you'd have a porter.

Followed by, most importantly, how would he brew it?
My Father-in-law is MacGuyver, when we were installing an outlet into my brew room for the stove I discovered that my drillbit was not long enough to drill through from the outside of my house to the inside I could not see where the hole was from the inside of the house to drill through from that side and have the holes line up. I was about to head off the the hardware store to fork out some cash for a bit extension when My father-in-law said "go get a coathanger and some wire cutters." He cut the coathanger at an angle and was able to drill through from the outside to create a pilot hole for the inside. Not exactly brewing porter from watermelons but impressed the hell out of me.
Transporting Post mix kegs and swing top bottles is also technically transporting a open container
