Though [[wine]] (''vino'') has traditionally been the most popular alcoholic beverage in Pelaxia, beer in recent decades has competed with wine in popularity. Breweries appeared in Pelaxia at the end of the 1760s.
Consumption of beer has increased outpacing that of wine since 1991, the growing production and consumption of beer has supported the existence of related events, for example beer festivals called '''Fiestas de la Cerveza''". However, the presence of a vigorous population of [[Celt]]ic lineage, principally of Kiravian origin, has supported the creation of other celebrations of beer, often for marketing purposes, such as [[Saint Patrick's Day]] (''Día de San Patricio'').
Pelaxians enjoy a variety of alcoholic beverages and Pelaxians can boast a varied array of ''elaboraciones'', whether industrial or [[artisanal]]. Besides beer and wine, Pelaxians frequently drink [[Limoncello]]. Limoncello is the most popular beverage of the middle and lower economic classes at Christmas and [[New Year]] (the upper classes proverbially preferring to celebrate with locally produced [[champagne]], although real old-line "[[Creole peoples|creole]]" aristocrats will still drink Limoncello, which is much more traditional).
Other widely consumed spirits are rum made from [[sugar cane]], gin, sangría and fernet.
