📋 About This Mod
Next-Gen 4. 04 Compatible
When I first playing the quest 'Practicum in Advanced Alchemy' I thought the distillery was kind of fun but soon I realized it was only used once in the game and get abandoned again, such a waste for a interesting machine with ingenious functionality. So I came up with this idea that maybe Geralt will come back later and run a alcohol factory, and unlike the original quest, you will be able to brew all kinds of alcohols rather than only a quest moonshine spirit.
So, now here it is!
FEATURES
1. Tutorial Quest
After finishing the quest advanced alchemy, you will receive a new tutorial quest which will lead you to brew one custom alcohol back to the distillery.
Remember, this is only a tutorial. Actually you can brew spirits, beers, wines and white wines in the new alcohol factory of Gerry, cheers!
2. Recipes and Books
To brew a alcohol, you need first to make a mash corresponding to the alcohol type. By completing the quest advanced alchemy, you will automatically receive the recipe of spirit mash. To get other recipes like recipe for beer mash, wine mash and white wine mash, you need to read some specific books to learn the recipe, which means you need to buy those books somewhere.
book: Wine making process book: How to Make White Wine book: Beer Production Method Encyclopedia
3. Various Mashes
Spirit mash: Wine mash: White wine mash: Beer mash:
4. Ingredients
Different mash recipes require different ingredients, some of which were added by this mod. You need to buy them in Inns, Bars or some other stores.
Barley: Hops: Wine grapes: White grapes:
5. Brew Your Alcohols!
With the cooked mash, you can go to the distillery and brew the alcohols, you will get a random alcohol determined by the mash type. Just follow the instructions provided by the original quest.
There're some easter eggs to find out! Try brew as more as you can to find them!
NEW EXPANSION
Cocktails
1. Cocktails are coming!
Now Geralt is able to serve the Witcher World with cocktails! (not making them in the distillery, but in the alchemy menu. And this is partially retroactive, if you're updating from a eralier version of the mod and loading a save generated with the mod installed, you have to brew one alcohol in the distillery to unlock getting the recipes.)
Bloody Gerry: Cosmopolitan: Lemon Drop: Oxenford Ice

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 268 endorsements and over 9,300 downloads.
- Adds a new gameplay loop for alchemy enthusiasts.
- Recently updated (February 2026), so likely works with current game version.
⚠️ Cons
- Requires completing the 'Practicum in Advanced Alchemy' quest, so not for early-game players.
- No mention of compatibility with other quest or alchemy mods, so potential conflicts.
For Witcher 3 players who enjoy alchemy and want a post-quest activity that feels meaningful. If you're a completionist who likes restoring locations and having a base of operations, this is for you. Skip if you prefer combat-focused content or don't care about brewing mechanics.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you've completed the 'Practicum in Advanced Alchemy' quest before installing, or the mod won't have anything to restore.
- If you're using other mods that alter the same distillery area, check for conflicts in your mod manager.
- Since it's a quest mod, consider starting a new playthrough or loading a save before the quest to experience it fully.
