[The Merchant Of Menace]

Hmm, I assumed they all carried around large straws.

[NewSheoth]

They just grab the barrel and down it in one go. They're dwarves, not elves.

[The Doctor]

You know how barrels have multiple units of booze? That's not just a quirk of the programming.

Dwarven booze is solid.

They just reach in, pick up a square of beer, and stuff it in their mouth.

And chew.

[The Merchant Of Menace]

That explains why they don't need water to brew it.

I will consider that to be the official answer until Toady, Threetoe (or maybe Footkerchief) inform me otherwise.

I remember noticing before that booze seemed more like a solid than a liquid, it can be placed in a backpack last I checked, and back in 40D it couldn't be placed in a waterskin.  It makes perfect sense.

So dwarves brew their bread. Nice. Ale is liquid bread... and dwarven ale is solid... so it's bread. So that's why they don't need the 'regular' bread.

Try new D&Ds: The dwarven ale-bite that melts in your mouth, and not in your hands!

You rang?

But anyways, I think their booze is solid, so you can make solid meals out of it. It was a feature, not a bug.

Now, since we are in Dwarf Fortress... WE NEED TO FIND A WAY TO WEAPONIZE IT!! FOR !!SCIENCE!!

[The Merchant Of Menace]

Sublimated clouds of booze?

[MaximumZero]

We need to find it in the raws, and give it the [ITEMS_WEAPON] tag. Boozesword, hoooo!

[Fayrik]

This is an Artifact Ale Axe. All worksdwarfship is of the highest quality. It is encircled by rings of beer, and menaces with spikes of rum. On the Axe is an image of a barrel.

[The Merchant Of Menace]

Although you'd be screwed when your military dwarfs start to drink their weapons.

[Raging Mouse]

It would allow them to grow addicted attached to their weapons in a whole new way...

[kilakan]

I think they probably vomit into the barrel then suck the vomit and some beer back up, you know like a fly.
