I used to keep a few cans of beer in my rollaboard all the time before the War On Liquids. Only once did I end up with can that got punctured with something else in my bag. Even thought the cans were in a plastic hotel laundry bag, I still had some leakage. I tried using a product called
Febreeze to get the beer smell out of my bag, but it ended up smelling like Febreeze and beer.

One or three of those rum and colas sounds good right about now.
