Just been to work and remembered that many lagers/ales/ciders are made up of several ingredients ...

So is this possible in DF yet?

[Max White]

Well yes.
Were we to mod in a more advanced brewing system, we would need to.
1) Make the ingredients somehow. What goes into most brews anyway?
2) Make 'false' herbs that have an alcohole attached, but never grow anywhere.
2) Make a custom workshop, because you can't use custom reactions on a still, so something like a brewery is needed.
3) Make custom reactions with the brewery that take the ingredients and produce the custom alcohol.

Here is a brief but helpful look at making beer http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beer

So not easily done at the moment  so  not be replicating the fact Magners Irish Cider is made from 16 different apples soon

They put copper in beer now... Well that is dwarfy!

[G-Flex]

They put copper in beer

No, they don't.

[Untelligent]

They do put gold in beer, which is dwarfier anyway.

EDIT: Turns out it's schnapps, not beer. Close enough.

[Max White]

Oh thanks, now I need to add schnapps to my currently in development mod, soooo nice of you to not add extra work loads on.

Just make the booze production require a copper barrel, rather than any container.
