Alcohol

Various forms of alcohol appear in all games of the Fallout series.

Overview
Alcoholic beverages have been available throughout the Fallout series in varying forms. In the "classic" set of games—Fallout, Fallout 2, and Fallout Tactics—alcohol served little purpose, providing no obviously beneficial effects, and being useful only under certain, limited circumstances. In later games this was changed; alcoholic beverages in Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas all provide both beneficial and negative effects. Fallout: New Vegas, in particular, places extra emphasis on whiskey through the Whiskey Rose companion perk, essentially turning the item into a combat chem while the perk is active.

Beer


Beer, commonly found throughout the wasteland, is an addictive alcoholic drink which increases player's Strength and Charisma by one while decreasing their Intelligence by one.

Booze


It can be found or purchased throughout the Wasteland and most notably, in consolidated communities and settlements.

Gamma Gulp beer


A beer variant most commonly found in Fallout 2.

Moonshine


Moonshine is an alcoholic beverage which has a more pronounced effect on the user's personality than other types, giving a greater boost to Charisma. Like other alcohol, it raises Strength but lowers Intelligence for the duration of its effects.

Roentgen rum


A "glow in the dark" type of rum, named after Wilhelm Roentgen, which results in various changes in Perception and a chance of becoming addicted.

Rot gut


A very strong liquor which in Fallout 2 can be found in Gecko, Cassidy's bar in Vault City and the bar in Broken Hills.

Scotch


Scotch has the benefit of raising a player's Strength and Charisma by one for a short time, at the cost of lowering Intelligence. The bottles appear to be empty. They should have a glowing orange-brownish color like the whiskey in the game, as Scotch is a type of whiskey.

Vodka


Vodka is a distilled alcoholic beverage, made mostly from water and ethanol and then distilled from a fermented substance such as rye, wheat, potatoes or sugar beet molasses. It is also the world's most popular spirit beverage.

Whiskey


Drinking whiskey increases Strength and Charisma by one point while lowering your Intelligence by 1 point. By drinking this you run the risk of addiction, curable by doctors for a fee.

Wine


Wine is an alcoholic beverage made from the fermentation of grape juice. It is produced by fermenting crushed grapes using various types of yeast which consume the sugars found in the grapes and convert them into alcohol.
