Make Cardboard Costume

HELP! What is the best way to make a beer barrel or costume?
I have to come as a Duff beer barrel or can, but not have decided how to make the costume. What do you suggest? I thought of using a plastic garbage can and cut the bottom. Or cut a giant cardboard box and who are using some kind of plastic tube on top and bottom. Has anyone tried any of these? What do you think will work better and not be a pain to do? Thanks!
Cement pipe is a good start or a cardboard barrels with metal rings. Cut a few holes in the side with a pair of belts. All white paint and stencil work BEER in black. Not sure if you still sell the generic beer any more, but was a bit of stuff really cheap for a while. If you're really artistic, you can paint your favorite brand on it. You might even scan a picture out of a carton of beer, expand and make a copy to paste into your barrel. Sounds like a good idea. Good luck. Sorry but I had forgotten the Duff Beer was good to Simpson or English beer. Here is some pictures for you. Here is a suit of Duff beer, too
