Question about bringing in stove and fuel.

Hey all. Been going to festivals for a couple years now but this is my first scamp. I have a little hobo stove setup that works great for cooking. I use denatured alcohol for fuel, is this going to be an issue getting in even if the can is clearly labeled? I've thought of putting it into a Nalgene but if it gets confiscated I'll be SOL for the whole weekend food wise. Advice? Experiences?

last time I brought a stove I brought just a water bottle of Coleman fuel and that was enough and nobody said anything

Ok. Yeah I was thinking of doing the same. Mostly because I think the can it came in could break open in my bag and soak my shit in alcohol.

My MSR stove requires an obvious red fuel bottle... do you think it would be taken?

Brought in two butane camp burners last year no problem. Bringing them again expecting the same. They really just don't want open fires. Burning coals and drunk people are a bad combination.

I'm not too sure, but I don't think they allow gas cooking equipment. I've brought electric friers before, and that was okay.
