            Add a "First-Among-Equals Imperial Stout" to your list to commemorate the foundation of the Kingdom of Arabel under our glorious despot Gondegal. First released this year after seven years maturation. Maybe give it an effect like blood frenzy or divine power.

            Just a suggestion. (A really good one).

              Is it possible to have brewable ales that require fort save Vs sleep, hold, blindness etc? It would be good for when I start having drinking competitions.

              It would be better yet if the fort save DC's were progressively higher the more you drank.. if that's possible.

              I'm quitting Barabus Fen, he was a character I made for the election and in retrospect I should have quit him after the result as you can only wander around insulting Verks clergy robes for so long before it gets old.

                  Thanks for the suggestions, guys, but they're not what I was asking in the OP. Hominid was closest, but still no points for Gryffindor.

                    Do they have to be spells or are more complicated options on the table?

                    If spells, could they be a %chance to take effect? If so, I would consider making these cheaper/more available than potions, but perhaps something like 50% chance to actually cast spell. Maybe that's a terrible idea.

                    If spells:

                    Iron Hammer Bock / Alcohol + Balgarn's Iron Horn (maybe risky near NPCs...)
                    Pigs Ear Pilsener / Alcohol + Remove Disease
                    Will-o-Whiskey / Alcohol + Remove Blindness/Deafness
                    Silver Buckle Gin / Alcohol + Eadgles Splendor
                    Dwarf's Head Ale / Alcohol Effect + Iron Guts
                    Black Knight Malt / Alcohol + Prot v Good
                    Blue Sword Swill / Alcohol + Prot v Evil
                    Cherry River Lambic / Alcohol + Barkskin
                    Jumpin' Juniper Brau / Alcohol Effect + Expeditious Retreat
                    Broken Knuckle Beer/ Alcohol Effect + Endurance
                    Wizard's Wheat Ale / Alcohol Effect + Mage Armor
                    Red Bull / Haste (seriously we should add an energy drink)

                      Could do these, Hominid, but they would need to be priced to be cheaper than potions but not excessively free. These recipes all make 4 of each alcohol, whereas potion brewing only makes 2 potions. (I could edit either one, though). Does the alcohol effect actually do any negatives in game or just make you swoon a little?

                      Maybe they could have pros/cons, like -1 wis but +2 cha (because alcohol leads to bad decisions but you're more charming/funny?)

                        According to the NWN Wiki:

                        Alcohol is an item that reduces intelligence for 1 turn when used. This represents drinks such as beer, wine, or spirits, which reduce intelligence by 1, 2, and 3 points respectively.

                        So this seems like an option if the script can be repurposed. I like custom stats more (-1 wisdom or -1 cha or -1 int for a few rounds) if that's an option.

                          It would be fun for doing drinking competitions, which would be more interesting than just having potion brewing under another name.

                          Fair enough. I'd do it but I don't know scripting.

                          With the consistency of syrup and the taste of a burned log that someone pissed on, this comes from the very bottom of the barrel in the strongest of ales. Many less sane Dwarves prize these dregs over the finest of brews.
