Like a beer you mean? I..don’t..think..so..

Nope...It was an honest question...Why can't you take Jesus in the sacrament home, or even a handful...That should keep you or anyone going for a few days...

Many moons ago, we asked a relative, an RC priest, if we could have the Blessed Sacrament in our home (for a period of time), and truth be told, I can't remember his full explanation (other than it would not be in a continual peace-filled environment; we had four little kids and various pets), but he said, no that can't be done.

As far as bringing home the Eucharist, it can only be given once a day, under usual circumstances. If you are a Eucharistic minister, you can place the host in a Pyx; "a box for Communion wafers: a container in which the consecrated wafers for Communion are placed so that they can be taken to those who cannot leave home." But again, this is for distribution to one person per day. You cannot keep a stockpile of Consecrated Hosts.
