The mage can speed up fermentation a maximum of 3 years per level of the caster, thus to instantly have a truly fine aged wine the mage must be of fairly high level. If the mage knows how long fermentation normally takes (through research or just being an alcoholic ;) he can cast this spell with automatic success, the alcohol is ready to be consumed. If the mage doesnt know how long it ferments for, then obviously he must guess, and the DM can decide on the success of the alcohol, depending upon his mood :) Material component is a sprinkle of hops. This spell was originally researched by an alcoholic mage i made once, who was sick of having to wait the years needed to produce a fine wine. A more powerful version of the spell is currently being researched in order to make wines of the magnitude of thousands of years fermentation, but Sidney is having trouble with some of the material components (a wine mug and pitcher from the Halls of Valhalla :) Thanks to Wes, Ron Jones and one or two others for their suggestions.

The tankard or goblet or whatever (no larger than a small keg) becomes full with the desired beverage. The material component ofthe spell is the container (obviosly) which is not consumed (obviosly), and a pinch of hops or a few grapes.
