Every Template:L's best friend! Brewers brew various Template:L into Template:Lic beverages, such as ale, beer, and other spirits. Since all Template:L need alcohol to get through the workday, this is a very important skill.

Brewers need a Template:L, a brewable Template:L, and at least one empty Template:L in order to brew drinks.

Regardless of skill, a brewer produces five units of alcohol for each unit of brewable plant. Because of crop stacking, this allows brewers to synergize well with highly talented Template:Ls and Template:Ls (who are more likely to produce larger plant stacks), and can quickly lead to Template:Led stills. A brewer will turn "Template:L" into "Template:L [5]", and will turn "Plump Helmet [5]" into "Dwarven Wine [25]." Both actions fill one empty barrel (despite their different quantities), and presumably take the same amount of time to brew.

As brewers become more skilled, they work faster. Although alcohol has no listed item quality, it is also presumed that brewer skill level creates a hidden quality level for alcohol, since dwarven Template:Ls and Template:Ls often mention high-quality drinks.
