Hops, the key ingredient for crafting sinful delights in the latest update, Sins Of The Flesh, can be found growing alongside your other vegetables on Farm Plots. The cultivation process remains the same, but first, you’ll need some Hops Seeds.
Where To Find Hops
The easiest way to obtain Hops Seeds is through Rakshasa, the rainbow shrimp chef, who sets up shop just outside the gate to Anchordeep. For twelve coins each, you can secure Hops Seeds, and he also offers seeds for every other available crop. If coins are scarce, consider obtaining Hops from a node while Crusading. These resource nodes are visible on the map between areas, so plan your route strategically to ensure you don’t miss them. Hops nodes are particularly efficient as they contain both Hops and Seeds, providing a one-stop solution to kickstart your brewing journey.
How To Use The Drinkhouse
Once you have your Hops (and Grapes), it’s time to turn them into beverages at the Drinkhouse. Interact with the recipe book on the lower-right corner of the stall to queue up drinks for brewing. The number of drinks you can queue corresponds to the available bar seats—three for the basic Drinkhouse and six for the upgraded version.
Unlike meals, the Lamb can’t brew drinks; this task is assigned to a Follower. You can either designate a dedicated Brewmaster by changing a Follower’s job or wait for an available follower to take on the role.
Followers won’t consume a drink until the Drinkhouse bell is rung. You can ring the bell as long as there is at least one drink ready to serve by interacting with it at the top-right corner of the Drinkhouse. If you want a specific Follower to enjoy a particular beverage, interact with the drink to reserve it for them before ringing the bell; otherwise, the first Follower to reach the Drinkhouse will claim it.
One intriguing benefit of letting your Befuddled cultists cause chaos is the steady increase in their Sin while in this state. If Sin reaches its maximum, you can Absolve them by engaging in conversation, utilizing the Sin Points earned to build upgrades, or encouraging Followers to expand the loyal servant base—the next generation of devoted followers!
