Probably Stolen - Cyberpunk Shopkeeper Sim: Best Way to Get Alchohol for Chemist?
Short answer
Suggested fix (unconfirmed): Put up the buy medicine sign so vendors will sometimes sell pure ethanol, or wait for your profession-related vendor to return. Alternatively, recycle your solvent using a quality-based solvent recycling module.
What you need to know
Making certain drugs like dream dust requires alcohol, unlike other products where it is optional. If you run out and fail to stock it early, your production can stall completely. Finding a reliable supply can be difficult due to shortages and random vendor appearances.
Step by step
- Display the buy medicine sign so vendors occasionally offer pure ethanol.
- Wait for your profession-related vendor to return, keeping in mind they only appear weekly.
- Obtain stolen vodka early in your run and start growing your own wine, remembering that fermentation takes two days.
- Recycle your solvent using a quality-based solvent recycling module if you have one available.
Tips
- Do not buy cases of cheap beer expecting to open them, as only more expensive types can be poured.
- Keep an eye out for the weekly chemical vendor, and stock up on chem sets and alcohol immediately when they arrive.
What players reported

I thought I was being clever when I ordered a case of beer, but you cannot crack it open unlike the more expensive kinds, which I found out can be poured by accident. so run is kinda dead to cartel unless I get alchohol to cook again.
What players suggest
what I mean is no one sells me alcohol or chem sets after the initial.... I have been resetting days to hopefully get one because I didnt realize that it was required for the recipe and I sold my first batch lol. Havent seen a single bottle of booze or chem set come through the door in 7 days other than the weekly chem vendor who was on like day 3 and I didnt figure I needed them then....
ye same, the moment i knew chemist is bottlenecked by alcohol i try to find stolen nudka early and start growing wine immediately
wine takes 2 days doesnt it to ferment... hmm save only goes back a day. Annoying. I tried to load an older day to get the food sign to see if ppl selling food might sell the vodka too, but no luck. the chem contact probably sells finished products right rather than materials? The run had a medical shortage week 1 so reluctant to give it up for what I consider a dumb reason fricken shortage of…
