Brews and Bevs
by Trep
Brews and Bevs, a Fabric mod by Trep, adds a brewing system for crafting beverages that grant custom potion effects.
What it does
Players craft a range of drinks with new items such as hops and grapes, along with brewer cups and polished wood used in the process. Each beverage applies its own custom potion effect, so the brewing loop adds a layer of progression on top of vanilla potions.
The mod is intended for survival play, and it stays lightweight in the sense that it adds a focused set of items rather than a large content package. It requires Fabric API on Minecraft 1.20.1 and later builds. Roughly Enough Items is supported for viewing crafting recipes, and REI integration is included in the mod.
Brews and Bevs runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for Fabric only, across six release versions, and the code is released under All rights reserved, so the mod is not open source.
