Honningbrew Mead

A bottled Nord mead that restores 20 Stamina, at the cost of slower Stamina regeneration for a short time afterwards.

Honningbrew Mead is a bottled mead in Skyrim that shares its name with the Honningbrew brewing house. At 20 gold a bottle, it is worth more than common table drinks while still weighing only half a unit, which makes it easy to carry a few on the road. For the brewery itself, see Honningbrew Meadery.

Effects

  • Restores 20 Stamina
  • Stamina regenerates 25% slower for 20 seconds

The trade-off is mild: the slowdown is short, so the instant 20 Stamina usually outweighs it. Drinking it right before a sprint or a few power attacks gets the most out of the bottle, while drinking it mid-fight and then waiting to recover works against you.
