This article is about an older version of DF.

Flasks are containers used by your Dwarves to carry alcohol or water while hunting or on military duty. Flasks can be made of Template:L (by a Template:L at a Template:L), Template:L (by a Template:L at a Template:L, where they are called waterskins), and Template:L (by a Template:L at a Template:L, where they are called vials), all being functionally equivalent. When ordering the creation of flasks, three are created per job.

Flasks can hold up to three units of alcohol or water. Alcohol is preferable to water, as it prevents unhappy thoughts and doesn't freeze in low temperatures. Soldiers can be ordered to fill their flasks from their specific squad menu.

When in adventurer mode, the water in the waterskin will freeze after some time in very cold weather. The resulting ice can be licked instead of drunk but doesn't quench thirst or melt from this action.

Glass vials are notable in that they are also used to make Template:L; however, soldiers will sometimes choose to use filled vials to store drinks.Bug:3116
