Characters will often spend time in places where drinks are served. Most of these will be inns and taverns, as they are places to meet people, find information and get jobs, but others include restaurants, homes and lairs.

These places will have drinks to buy or find, and this supplement has a list of 100 different alcoholic drinks that characters could encounter. Each drink has its name given, plus some other details. Some are cheap, some are expensive, some are nice, some are disgusting and some are probably lethal in the real world.

To use the list, either roll d100 for a random result or select appropriate ones manually.

Here are some sample results:

44. Hair of the Toad: This green-tinged beer is brewed from marsh hops and has poison harvested from the glands on the back of a toad is added to it after brewing. The beer has a slightly astringent taste but in most respects seems little different, in terms of taste, to most beers on first consumption. Drinking it in moderate amounts causes a slight numbing of the tongue and
mouth, which supporters claim is a pleasant feeling, but drinking too much results in stomach cramps and nausea.
45. Hammer Beer: This is a beer that is consumed purely for how strong it is, rather than any other considerations such as flavour, which is if anything less pleasant than a regular beer. It is, however, not cheap, so it is rarely a favoured drink for those who simply want to get drunk as quickly as possible. This places it in the unusual position of being a drink that is consumed purely to get drunk but one that isn’t popular with most with such a goal in mind, leaving it with no particular market. Those who get drunk on Hammer Beer are referred to as being “hammered.”
46. Heart’s Blood: This elvish barley whiskey is aged for 100 years in barrels made from the wood of a very slow-growing tree native to elvish forests. The tree is never chopped down, so the wood is only harvested when the trees either finally die of natural causes or are knocked down due to the weather. As a result, the barrels are very rare and the drink is only ever made in limited quantities. This low rate of production, plus the drink taking so long to age, means that it is naturally extremely expensive. Heart’s Blood has an almost golden colour and a fine, smoky taste.
