Drugs & Drinks: The Distillery and Street Buyers
Brew liquor, produce drugs and sell to buyers on the street, in bars and clubs.
Under Crime > Drugs & Drinks you manage everything around liquor and drugs: brewing, producing, dealing and your rank. Your liquor is the basis for drink crates in the Warehouse.
Six liquor recipes
| Drink | Bottles per batch | Brewing time | Unlocks at rank |
|---|---|---|---|
| Beer | 24 | 8 min | 1 |
| Wine | 18 | 15 min | 2 |
| Rum | 15 | 22 min | 3 |
| Whisky | 12 | 30 min | 4 |
| Cognac | 10 | 45 min | 6 |
| Champagne | 8 | 60 min | 8 |
Quality and ranks
Every batch is Common, Good or Masterly. Better quality raises the yield. Your distillery rank runs from 1 to 10 and grows by brewing, making Masterly batches and closing deals. A higher rank gives more cauldrons (from 2 to 5), faster brewing, more chance at quality and new recipes. You get a one-time cash reward at every rank. Ranks cannot be bought.
Producing drugs
In the same distillery you also make weed (10 min), XTC (20 min, from rank 3) and coke (40 min, from rank 5). The yield goes to your drug stash. If you would rather grow than brew, read about the Drug Lab.
Street buyers
You sell drugs to buyers on the street. Every market round (every 3 minutes) there are 6 buyers with a bid around street value. A bid far above the market can be a trap: you risk arrest. Weed sells in bigger lots than coke. You deliver liquor to bars and clubs, with a daily limit of 20 deals. A too generous bid there can mean an inspection too.
Every closed deal counts towards your rank, achievements, daily tasks, challenges and the Liquor Barons tournament.
