Alcohol (DXMD)

Alcoholic drinks, including beer, wine, and spirits, are consumable items in Deus Ex: Mankind Divided.

Gameplay
Drinking alcohol recovers health at the cost of impaired vision. If health is already full, consumption will temporarily raise it above the maximum, indicated by a reddish bar that depletes slowly on its own. Alcohol functions similarly to the HypoStim Injector and Painkillers, except that the health recovery or boost is lower and usage results in temporarily blurred vision.

Alcohol can be purchased from Teresa Petrauskas, who sells beer for 10 each, and Nada Birak, who sells spirits for 50  each, the two bartenders at the Red Queen, and many other classy and/or less classy establishments encountered throughout Adam's travels. Typically, bars only serve one kind of beer, and one kind of spirits in shot form. Alcohol, especially beers, can be found all around the game environments. Notably, a large amount of beer can be found at a second-level apartment near Koníčky & Hračky in the northwest part of the Překážka district.

It takes six to seven beers to fully restore Adam's life bar, as opposed to four painkillers. The only exception is the Mramor brand beer, which requires only five cans to bring him back to full health and vigour.

It takes about five bottles of spirits to fully restore his health, with the only notable exceptions being Nye's Rye whiskey, which only requires four bottles, and Old Man's Prestige, which is equally effective, but much rarer, and far more valuable for selling.

While alcohol sure is no substitute for proper medication, it'll do in a pinch.
