Millet beer is a type of alcoholic beverage that is made from malted Murray Millet, a native cereal grain of the grass family. Millet beer is widely consumed in various parts of Oceanyka, where it has different names and production methods. It has a stronger colour and protein content than barley beer, but a lower attenuation limit, which means it is almost always darker. This drink is emblematic of the continent, and though traditionally served cool (kept in such a state within large storage cellars), the advent of refrigeration has brought new life into this traditional drink. Many millet beer producers in Oceanyka can trace back their heritage for centuries, and a select few families for millennia.
