Beer

Beer is one of the varieties of alcohol found in the wasteland.

Background
Beer is a beverage made from barley, water, hops and yeast in a process called fermentation. Ada refers to the substance as a depressant, asking "was society that restless?"

Beer is still produced with new ingredients found in the post-War landscape. Pre-War beer is also found throughout the wastelands, and is still consumable.

In the first three games in the series, beer decreased Perception. From Fallout 3 onwards, all alcoholic drinks became minor boosters, increasing Strength and Charisma at the expense of Intelligence.
