How do the people of Hjårdan 'farm' the Booze-Rat?
Why certainly! We have all sorts of exotic drink. Can I excite you for a pint of Tarnesian Starköl - bitter, tart, nutty brew this stuff; or rather have shot of H'elvanian Whisky(?) - 7 years old(!), strong, but with a sweet finish... Actually, looking at you more closely - you're not from the area, are you? What about a glass of Hatjörn's Gift then? On the house.

Welcome to the Most Ingenious Questions You Never Thought of. Today we look at the booze-rat, one-last-time. An animal aptly named for its unique defensive mechanism of storing potent alcohol in its body in order to daze/incapacitate a predator.
Well no, we're actually looking at the question that has been around as long as the booze-rat: How do we drink it?
The booze-rat has evolved additional organs in order to a) produce the alcohol it needs for its defense, and b) keep itself safe from the negative effects of alcohol poisoning.
Q: How do the people of Hjårdan cultivate their unusual source of alcohol?
