Mead can be stored in a Barrel.

Mead buffs the effects of Vegetables by 1%, Game and Nuts and Seeds by 0.5% per gulp at Q10. Each drink will also add a negative satiation against itself, thus granting diminishing return on the buff.

How to Acquire

Build a Demijohn and fill it with Mead Must. Must turns to Mead after one week [Verify: fermentation time.]. In order to halt the fermented mead's further progression into Vinegar, one must store it in a barrel.

How to Use

The proper way to drink Mead is from the Drinking Horn, not drinking out of a proper vessel halves the effective quality of your Mead. Note that mead kept in a Drinking Horn will continue to ferment and eventually turn into Vinegar.

Drinking

• Quality 10 Mead recovers 10% stamina and drains 20% energy per 0.05L sip. Higher quality Mead will decrease the energy drain but stamina recovery remains the same at all qualities.

• This makes high quality Mead useful for performing stamina draining tasks without having to eat as much to recover, thus preserving your hunger bonus. Though energy is always shown as a whole number, it is not simply rounded up or down. For example, Q11 Mead will alternate between draining 20% and 19% energy at regular intervals. Other drinkable liquids follow the same rules and formula.

• Energy Drain= $({\frac {1}{\sqrt {quality/10}}}+1)*10$
• Gives energy if Q >20

• According to that formula initial quality growth is more effective, and it always higher than 10% per 0.05 sip. Naturally stamina regenerate 10% per 10% energy.

Quality

The quality of the Mead depends solely on the quality of the mead must.
