Drinking Contest
From Witcher Wiki
There are several opportunites (some might say necessities) for drinking contests in The Witcher. Geralt's stamina will be put to the test. These contests usually involve some goal, though what that goal is may not be clear on the onset. It's usually worthwhile, but I'd recommend having either a place to sleep handy, or better still, Wives' Tears on hand for the aftermath.

[edit] Mechanics
Participate in drinking contests to gain information and rewards.
- Left-click the "drink" icon in dialogues to choose a beverage and begin drinking.
- Continue drinking until Geralt's rival gives up (otherwise Geralt winds up passed out and you've lost)
[edit] Notes
- Characters often have drink preferences and may refuse anything but their favored beverage. Outdrink your opponent but take care not to pass out.
- Use beer.

- Odo (necessary for the story)
- Thaler (next to Geralt, he's the champion, he takes nine beers!)
