Beer is a Beverage that can be found inside Beverage Coolers usually found in gas stations, old businesses, pharmacies, gun stores, hardware stores, movie theatres and ski lodges. Drinking Beer will have a positive effect on the players Stamina and a negative effect on Hydration.

Beer gives you the buff Beer Buzz when you drink it which lasts for up to 30 game minutes. Beer Buzz gives you 2 stamina per second. Beer does not have a crafting recipe yet. Beer is orangey-gold in color and is stored in the generic Glass Jar. If the player drinks too much beer they will get the negative Drunk effect which will reduce their movement speed like the Sprained Leg de-buff

Yeah traders do sell hop seeds and books to brew it which you usually find in single player right off from the first visit while mp varies. You also may get lucky and plant one of those "random" seeds you find in loot with a chance it grow into a hops plant (or some other plant) which you harvest but cannot turn into seed until you gain the ability from reading the hops book.

seeds never change type randomly, potato seeds always gives you potato.

Those random seeds are from Valmod or another similar mod. Hops seeds can be found only at the Trader for now, same with the recipe book.

Quoted from the wiki - which seems a little out of date. There is a recipe and is craftable now. The recipe is Hops Flower + Bottled Murky Water at a Chemistry Station.

The Beer Buzz buff seems accurate enough, although it also renders you "immune" to stuns from zombies - so it's definitely worth carrying some if you like to MMA your way out of a horde. I don't, since I still prefer my "Magnum to the face" strategy in such instances.

Cool thanks for answering my question.
