Brewing with the Primitive Plus barrel
This Fermenting Barrel is a structure from Primitive Plus in ARK: Survival Evolved, placed to brew drinks. In-game it is summed up as "Combine malt with various items to make fermented beverages." The ARK Wiki names three alcoholic drinks that come out of it: Wheat Beer, Braggot Mead and Fermented Wine.
Water jars for brewing
Malt is not the only need. The wiki points out that filled water jars must sit inside the barrel for a brew to work, and those jars are used up each time a drink is made.
