Or perhaps dwarves can produce Essential Booze, which is not subject to the limit of 95% for magical reasons. But really the difference between 95% and 100% doesn't seem likely to matter much.

How you make your beer and what you put in it, as well as the strain of yeast used, can make beer anywhere from 0.5%ABV to 25%ABV...
