There is two types of barrels, a small barrel (max capacity - 8)
and there is a large barrel (max capacity - 24)

- The player may not be able to walk normally anymore, he will weave, making it almost impossible to walk straight.
- Effects like Blindness, Confusion, Poison etc. occur.
- The chat will be altered depending on drunkenness, many things players write may be incomprehensible, sometimes it seems senseless.
- Is the alcohol particularly strong, it may have poisonous effects.
- After drinking a lot, there is a chance of vomiting.
- If you drink too much, you may die due to alcohol poisoning, but don't worry, you can go back to your items by using the /back command.
Recipes
You may notice some of these are new. Some are updated versions of the ones we had before (you can still use the old ones if you wish to). If your potion is great quality its name will be colored (colors vary from drink to drink). Names may differ depending on the quality as well.
