 For most practical brewing purposes, alcohol threshold isn't important -- max alcohol is the thing that matters.

 === Making Spirits in an Alembic ===
 *Every barrel of beer has the potential to make almost 50 deben of Rock Spirits of Fire if you distill enough barrels at a time (8 is enough, 13 is not better). Distilling just a single barrel will yield much less spirits, maybe as low as 15-20, per barrel.

 == Beer Usage ==
 === Beer Drinking ===
-When served at a drinking table, beer is consumed simply by filling any mug (all beer mugs are identical, any can be used and reused) and drink. If this beer is new to you, you may get a Beer Tasting skill point. You may continue drinking from the same beer (and the same mug) as long as you gain new Beer Tasting skill points (up to three points from the same beer keg have been seen), but as soon as you don't get a point you should stop drinking, since you will not get any more points from that beer. Of course, if many tasters are at the table, you should not drink more than your share. One to three mugs per person is common. A barrel has enough beer for 21 mugs.
+Beer is drunk at a [[Ceremonial Tasting Table]], see [[Beer Tasting]] for more info.
