Mature dragon bitter is a stat enhancing beer that temporarily enhances a player's Strength level by 3 at the cost of 6 levels in Attack. It is the stronger, or 'mature' version of the regular Dragon bitter, which adds 2 levels to Strength and removes 4 from Attack (the same effects as an Asgarnian ale). Its effects are not incredibly useful, as strength mix and strength potions are much cheaper and can give 3-12 Strength and can carry multiple doses in one slot without any negative effects.

When brewing Dragon bitter, there is a small chance that it will turn out mature. As maturation occurs during the brewing process, leaving normal ale in the vat after it has finished brewing will not cause it to turn mature or go bad. The chance of getting a mature ale can be increased by adding the stuff to the vat just prior to adding the hops.

Players can brew it in either the Keldagrim or Port Phasmatys breweries.

Effects

• Increases Strength level by 3
• Heals 2 hitpoints
• Lowers Attack level by 6
