“This plant contains the chemicals used to make aspirin. A small section of root, when peeled and crushed smells like Germolene, and when chewed is a good natural remedy for relieving headaches.”

Ancient analgesic beer?

Sounds like a meady sweet whiskey. The meadowsweet would give it an almondy/nutty flavor. The honey would make it cloyey sweet like mead, and of course the barley gives it that good stout kick.
