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. 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.

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

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.

The "drunk" effect can be canceled by triggering the Icarus Landing system, firing the Typhoon, or punching through a wall.

Shots
Shots can only consumed on the spot and cannot be taken into the inventory.

 * The description for Nye's Rye is a reference to, popularly known as Bill Nye the Science Guy, who also appeared on the American TV show.
 * Akuma Shochu may be based on Kirin's Takuma Shochu. The name "Akuma" may be a reference to the character from the Street Fighter series, and the description "combination punch to the head and kick to the gut" may be a reference to combos used in such fighting games. The term "Akuma" (悪魔) means "Devil" in Japanese.
 * In the description for Welsh Whiskey, lechyd da! Ble mae'r toiled? means "Cheers! Where is the toilet?"
 * The "Dai-Taiga" beer seems to have a typo in its name on the cans; the label reads "Dai-Taga."  "Taiga" 大河 means "great river" in Japanese. "Dai" 大 also means "large."
 * The bottle texture for the Kylmyster Canadian Whiskey reads "Kylmister" rather than "Kylmyster." The term "myster" may be based on the real-world Jägermeister brand.
