I feel like this is not so much a bug as just a fact of living in medieval times. They drank more booze than water. I say they should keep the ale consumption as is and just make it easier to grow hops. I want my villagers sloshed to the gills in historically accurate fashion god dammit.

Also there's a lot of myths about this, medieval people did also drink water, they knew to boil it or get it from fast running streams/deep wells

I didn't say they only dtank beer.

Sorry was referencing what you said specifically, it’s just a real pop history fact that gets thrown around.
