Redwall Abbey

Drinks at Redwall Abbey are mainly brewed by a Cellarmaster, usually a hedgehog, although the position holder has been known to be a mole or an otter.

Strawberry Cordial

Strawberry Cordial, also sometimes called Strawberry Fizz, is strawberry-flavored drink mentioned in almost all the Redwall books. It is a favorite among Dibbuns because of its sweet flavor and fizzy consistency. Strawberry Cordial must be strained before being served in order to maintain its clear, slightly colored aspect. It is usually served very cold.

This beverage is a staple at every feast, especially Nameday. In Taggerung, it was served to "Lord and Lady Strawberry", the winners of the Wall Race.

October Ale

October Ale, also called October Nutbrown Ale, is characterized by its dark brown color and generous foam. It is kept in barrels, and requires much attention, regular tapping and frequent tasting. It's been made in Mossflower Woods since before Redwall Abbey was built, while Kotir and Verdauga Greeneyes still ruled over the land.

As its name indicates, October Ale is squeezed, brewed, and fermented in Autumn. Its brewing is the pride and guarded secret of the Abbey Cellarkeepers and the Spike and Quill families in particular, have reputed expertise in this craft.

October Ale is present at all meals, all times and all occasions, but is especially favored during Great Feasts and Namedays. It is the object of many songs and ballads and is particularly appreciated with cheese.

A recipe for non-alcoholic October Ale appears in The Redwall Cookbook, and was even made by the Redwall Wiki.
