The description of this item opens with a mention of backpacking….I understand flasks from the standpoint of having an attractive and portable place to store your booze, and I have a couple flasks. However, from the standpoint of a dedicated backpacking flask, I don't see any advantage of this flask over a similar size plastic bottle.I currently use empty 200 mL everclear bottles (I buy everclear often for uses beyond drinking). Plastic bottles are lighter, cheaper, and don't impart taste. And if you lose it, or drop it, etc you will mourn any booze left more than you will the bottle. I guess you can group this item with a plethora of other backpacking items seeking a place in our packs, but ultimately don't offer much value (especially to ultralight minded backpackers).

JhuggsPlastic bottles very much do impart taste, even those designed for alcohol

erikowahlbergLong term, sure. A few day backpacking trip? I doubt there would be a discernible difference, if any at all.

BleetherHA! yes...yes it is ghetto as fuck. That's sort of the point. I endorse this flask all day long for daily use, or as your "go to" flask, but out in the back country? Ghetto or not, it's all about function. I actually dig this flask very much and will get one eventually (not in the budget ATM). But I wouldn't want to lose it or have it get banged up. Your comment gave me a good laugh.
