Locations
Beer is the most common form of alcohol in the wasteland and as such can be found in a large number of locations.
- A large number (over 20) can be purchased from Francine Garret in the Atomic Wrangler casino.
- Brewer's beer bootlegging, as its name suggests, has many bottles of beer hidden away inside.
- 8 can be found behind the bar at the Ultra-Luxe with a high possibility of the bartender selling several others.
- Vault 22 common area: It is on the upper level, across from the overseer's office, in the room next to the one with the pool tables.
Notes
- Beer is an ingredient in mole rat stew and Cook-Cook's Fiend stew, made at campfires.
- Though a drink just like whiskey or scotch, beer doesn't make the same sound as when one picks up another drink item; instead it makes a miscellaneous sound such as when scrap metal is picked up.
