Battle Brew

Battle Brew is a consumable item in the Fallout: New Vegas add-on Old World Blues.

Background
Battle Brew was created by Dr. Mori, a Big MT research scientist at the X-13 research facility. After an argument with Dr. Calis, Mori was forced to move the supply to a storage room in the facility.

Characteristics
Battle Brew is a potent concoction made from vodka, mutant cave fungus, and Salient Green. The mixture has no Charisma bonus but provides healing and greater resistance to injury. In essence, Battle Brew acts as a combination of Med-X and stimpaks. In addition, consuming this applies a separate effect named "Red Mist," which lasts for 20 seconds and grants +40 action points and an additional +1 Strength. Contrary to the (longer) Strength bonus, this one stacks with other alcoholic beverages.

Crafting
This item can be crafted by the player character.

Creation requirements

¹ Can also be crafted at the strange still located in the X-13 research facility without the Survival skill check.

Locations

 * A strange cask can be found on a hill (outside the fence) just northwest of the X-7b "Boom Town" target zone, close to the Guns skill book recipe. Inside and on top of the cask are four bottles of Battle Brew.
 * A second strange cask containing three bottles is opposite the strange still in the X-13 research facility.
 * A bottle is lying on the forcefield in the ceiling of the same room. Shooting the forcefield with an upgraded sonic emitter will drop the Battle Brew into the room.
