Brewing and meadmaking is a little more specialized than stuff you'd find in a normal cookbook since it requires special equipment, but once you get it down it's just like any other recipe.
FFXI has a few alcoholic beverages mentioned. You can buy Mulsum, and Rolanberry is mentioned a lot. I don't think mead is ever mentioned, which surprises me since there are so many bees. I guess when designing a world they didn't stop much to think about boozahols.
With the prevalence of rolanberry, I've had my eye on a pyment using grape juice and honey. As for beer, I think a Galkan Porter or Ephramadian Red might be nice. I'll consider my options and see what I can work with.
DO IT.
I've been meaning to get in to home beer making for a long time now, it seems like a lot of work but a lot of fun. ^^ Would def. try my hand at making a FFXIV-themed brew if you posted instructions.
