[[File:Dwarven stout detail.png|left|75px]]
'''Dwarven stout''' is an ale that can be player made with the [[cooking]] skill by [[brewing]]. It can be obtained and used by free players. When consumed it provides a +1 boost to the player's [[Mining]] and [[Smithing]] skills, at a cost of -5 to [[Attack]], [[Strength]] and [[Defence]]. It does not have to be player made, and is sold cheaply at several pubs including: the [[Rising Sun Inn]] in [[Falador]], the [[King's Axe Inn]] in [[Keldagrim]], the [[Burthorpe Games Room]], [[the Pick and Lute]] in [[Taverley]], and [[Jossik]] sells it after one completes [[Horror from the Deep]] in the [[Lighthouse]]. Dwarven stout also has three spawn points found under [[White Wolf Mountain]]. The effects of the Dwarven Stout last up to 60 seconds, at the standard restoration rate for stats.

The full recipe for a Dwarven Stout is as follows (''in the order given''):
#2 [[Bucket of water|Buckets of water]]
#2 [[Barley malt]]
#(optional) 1 "[[the stuff]]," to increase chance of maturity
#4 [[Hammerstone hops]]
#1 [[Ale yeast]]
#Wait two to five days
#Collect the completed ale using eight [[beer glass]]es or two [[calquat keg]]s*
<nowiki>*</nowiki> [[Calquat keg]]s are highly recommended, especially if the ale has matured. Simply by collecting the ale in a keg, the value of the batch will increase by several thousand coins.

[[Dwarven stout(m)|Mature Dwarven stout]] provides a +2 boost to both the mining ''and'' smithing skills, at a similarly exaggerated price to the players melee skills. Mature dwarven stout is one of the highest non-variable smithing boosts in the game and can be extremely useful, especially Dwarven stout (M4) which stacks 4 doses of the brew into one inventory slot. It can be used to enter the mining guild while 2 levels down, enables players to make higher level items when smithing, potentially decreasing loss margins, and can be used for several quest requirements. Dwarven stout(m) is members only.

===Uses===

It is possible to enter the [[Mining Guild]] after drinking a standard Dwarven stout if a player has level 59 Mining (58 if the player is willing to pay for a mature dwarven stout). The positive effects of the stout do ''not'' stack (e.g. drinking 10 of them does not produce a +10 mining boost), but the negative effects do; meaning that regardless of how many stouts are imbibed in a row, the player will only see a maximum boost of +1 to their Mining and Smithing skills; similarly, drinking many stouts in succession will soon leave the player with [[Attack]], [[Strength]], and [[Defence]] levels at zero.

Dwarven stout can be used to make better items with the smithing skill, at some levels allowing players to save a large amount of money by making more sought after items. It can also be used to boost to the level needed to mine higher level ores such as [[Mithril ore|Mithril]], [[Adamant ore|Adamantite]], [[Runite ore|Runite]], etc. Using D-stout does not significantly increase the speed at which a player mines but gives the respective XP for the ore.

==Effects==
*Increases [[Mining]] and [[Smithing]] levels by 1 temporarily.
*Lowers [[Attack]], [[Strength]], and [[Defence]] by 2-7 levels temporarily. (Levels drop approximately 2 + 5% of skill level.)

*[[Dwarven stout (m)]]
==Trivia==
* The price of Dwarven Stout rose after the [[Ancient Effigies]] update as the 1 level boost allowed players to Investigate higher levelled effigies..
* The name 'dwarven stout' is like a pun, since 'stout' is an attribute often ascribed to dwarves themselves.
* If used upon Austri or Vestri (near the stairs that lead under White Wolf Mountain) they will say, "Ach! I don't want that!"
