Fallout 76 brewing

So you’re interested in starting your Fallout 76 brewing journey? Perhaps you want to run a fully stocked bar? Well look no further! This guide will show you just how to do that EASILY!

Items you will need for brewing

Brewing station

First up, in your CAMP you will need a Brewing Station however this is optional as they can be found elsewhere. This is unlocked during the ‘Wasted on Nukashine’ quest. If you haven’t unlocked it, you can either find one at someone else’s CAMP or head over to one of these locations to find one.

Cooking station

You will also need a means to create boiled water, so some sort of cooking station will help. Again this is optional as it can be found in another players CAMP or in one of these locations.

Boiled water

You’ll need 2 Boiled water per beer. You can get this by collecting water from any body of water and boiling it at a cooking station.

Corn

1 Corn is needed per beer that you want to create.

Razorgrain

You will need 2 Razorgrain per beer you want to make.

Wood

For Wood you will also need 2 wood per beer and 1 wood per boiled water, so a total of 4 wood per beer.

Summary

So to sum up, for beer you will need:

  • Boiled water x2
  • Corn x1
  • Razorgrain x2
  • Wood x2

Let’s dive right into it, I will show you what I do every time to brew up some beers!

Getting the resources for Fallout 76 brewing

Corn – Silva Homestead

First off this is a good time to equip the Green Thumb perk card for your Fallout 76 brewing journey, although not necessary as you will still get lots of produce.

We’re heading over to Silva Homestead first to get lots of Corn! We also did a guide on this as one of the best places to get Corn.

Off the bat, assuming you’ve fast travelled there you should be directly in front of the house, jump over the fence to the field behind of it. Otherwise find the house and run behind it!

Tip: It has an Electrical Tower behind it.

Collect lots of these plants, there is so many here. Remember you only need 1 per beer.

Razorgrain – Billings Homestead

Next up is Razorgrain and guess what? It’s in running distance from Silva Homestead! We also did a post on this too. Just follow your compass or the map and run south west towards this workshop.

It’s also viewable from the field in Silva Homestead.

When you’ve arrived there, collect lots of Razorgrain, you will need 2 per beer, so get double of what you want to brew.

Wood – Gilman Lumber Mill

Now I don’t actually collect wood or water as I have plenty of wood and water at my base but nonetheless I will take you through these!

Next up is Gilman Lumber Mill, perfect for if you need wood, if you don’t then SKIP this step.

Once you’re there collect from piles of wood all around the site, you may get unwanted guests so deal with them too!

As you will need 2 wood per beer and 1 per boiled water, so collect four times as much as the beer you want to brew.

Water – The Wayward

The thing with water, you can’t use purified water to cook in this game which I think is a flaw! For that reason we will boil some for our Fallout 76 brewing.

Head to the Wayward, south east of Gilmans Lumber mill, you will have it unlocked as a fast travel point already or simply run and grab some wood on the way if you need to.

Fallout 76 The Wayward on the map circled in red

When you’re there, go to the bridge behind the Wayward, collect some water from the river (you will pass a field of corn, you could technically just get your corn and water from here but I find the field tends to be already harvested). Again you will need 2 for every beer and a further 2 for every boiled water, so you will need 4 per beer you want to brew.

Alternatively

Another place to get water is next to Silva Homestead and Billings Homestead, you can simply run to the edge of the land and get some water, but you will still need to boil it.

Boiling the water

Now that’s the acquisition of resources complete for Fallout 76 brewing, now we just need to head to a couple of places to finish it off, first we will need to boil the water.

For this we’re just going directly behind us to the Overseers camp. The building to the left is The Wayward.

Head on over there and use the cooking station to boil all of your water.

We’re now ready for phase 2, brewing!

Fallout 76 Brewing Station

Firstly, the easiest place if you have unlocked it would be to go to Big Als Tattoo Parlour for it’s Brewing Station, but I’m going to skip it as I will assume you haven’t done the quest that takes you there.

For that reason we’re going to go to The Rusty Pick!

Once you’re in the Rusty Pick, take the right path.

When you see the legendary exchange machine. take the stairs to the right.

You’ll see the brewing station, use it.

Now, under beers you can craft Fermentable Beer, this will slowly turn into regular beer in your inventory after 60 minutes! Or you can put it in a Fermenter to speed up the process.

You’ve now made your first batch of beers! Now that these have been made, they will never expire and are very handy for dailies when they appear.

Thank you for letting me help you start your Fallout 76 brewing journey, happy brewing!
