Wild Snake
About the 'finest' booze around, Wild Snake is the go-to drink for underhivers with creds in their pocket and an iron liver. Each bottle contains the skinned and pickled remains of a 'snake', giving the liquour both its name and a sharp bitter taste on account of the snake venom.[3]
Overview
A rare and extremely strong alcoholic beverage brewed in the Badzones of Necromunda's underhives, Wild Snake can find its way to the marketplaces of Necromunda's settlements and even the pleasure domes of the upper hive. Gangs fortunate enough to find some for sale will eagerly snatch it up regardless of price so that they can drink it all before a fight to give them the edge of some "Snake Courage".[1]
Made from the skins of various snakes captured throughout the Underhive, each bottle testifies to its authenticity by having a specimen of the snake it was brewed from preserved inside. It is a clear sharp-tasting liquid with a bitter taste that comes from the venom of its ingredients.[2]
For those gangers or ordinary citizens too short on money to afford this illustrious drink, they must settle for Second Best.[2]
