Drink Families

The table and ingredient lists below are generated from Distillery's bundled beverage-affinities.json. They describe the defaults; the in-game guide shows the server's current catalog and available ingredients.

A named base normally needs at least two-thirds suitable ingredients: four of a default six-item mash. Specific bases such as apples, grapes, rice and corn take precedence within their broader fruit or grain family. Pure suitable batches earn full composition credit. The rules use proportions when a server changes the batch size.

The boiling column describes full process-quality credit. Raw grain and rice wort can still ferment, and boiling does not change their ABV.

Prepared wines, beers and high-proof spirits

Skin all grape inputs for White Wine, some for Rosé, or leave them whole for Wine. Skinning reduces the grapes' tannins and shifts their blended tint. Roasted shares are measured among grain inputs: at least half selects Irish Stout, one-third Porter, and one-sixth Irish Red Ale. Pale batches with at least two-thirds Wheat among their grains become Wheat Beer; the remaining pale batches start as Ale and can become Lager after three recorded cool rack days. Rice/Sake and Corn/Corn Beer keep their more specific family precedence. Ordinary beer craftsmanship takes one day; Lager takes three cool days.

Porter and Irish Stout intentionally reuse the same dark-beer player head. Their ingredient proportions and drink identities remain distinct.

The following ordered routes are generated from the same catalog as production. Earlier qualifying routes take precedence; administrator-edited thresholds and names appear here when the source is regenerated.
