Alcohol is a consumable item in Vintage Story.

Creation

See also Alcohol brewing

Alcohol is created by fermenting fruit juices, honey, or certain flours mixed with water. There are two main types of alcohol, fermented and distilled. Distilled alcohols can be further refined into aqua vitae.

Fermented alcohols include mead, ciders, wines and ales. These are created by sealing the appropriate ingredients into a barrel and waiting either 7 or 14 days for the fermentation to be complete.

Distilled alcohols include distilled mead, brandy, whiskey and vodka. It uses a fermented alcohol as a base, which is then distilled by using a boiler and condenser. These are specialized pieces of equipment that require copper plates, and some form of solder. Once created, players can then use fermented alcohol, water, and firewood to create distilled alcohol.

Aqua vitae is created by distilling any distilled alcohol one more time.

Usage

All alcohols can be consumed for varying amounts of fruit satiety. Consuming alcohol also creates a "drunkenness" effect for players, adding significant visual sway and blur effects. This effect fades over time.

Aqua vitae is primarily used to create soaked bandages, which is one of the most powerful healing items in the game.
