(Sometimes I kept the whiskey in the garage near the beer fridge - get another beer, take a slurp from the bottle.)
I used to do that trick often - mask the smell of the liquor with the smell of beer to avoid questions. I'd usually have a fifth of some kind hidden on top of the cabinets in our apartment. When I'd get a beer, I'd reach on top of the cabinets and put back a shot or two before said beer. Looking back, I was nuts.
