  - [can be used for a German type of beer, like Weizenbier, Weißbier] (qepHom 2023)
wevpev HIq 		[not translated] (n)
  - "It 'would be okay' to use that phrase to refer to any wheat-based liquor, but doesn't mean it's the only name for it. Otherwise 'wheat liquor' would also work." (qepHom 2023)

SEE:
rID'oH HIq  	barley liquor (n) (qepHom 2023)
"[untranslated. It "would be okay" to use that phrase to refer to any barley-based liquor, but doesn't mean it's the only name for it.]" (qepHom 2023)

'ebHIv  		still (n) (qepHom 2020)

(KGT 95):  Domestic {HIq} is distilled from a number of different kinds of grain (tIr), with some additional constituents (of both plant and animal origin, including {'Iw}, blood) adding flavor and strength.

(qepHom 2020):   {bewSom} [mash] is a "mixture of ingredients that, after a bit of time, produces fermented {HIq}. Maltz thought that maybe this was shortened from something like {bewSom roghmeH qegh pa'} "vat for fermenting {bewSom} room" or "{bewSom fermenting vat room", but he wasn't sure about that." 

SEE ALSO:
tIr  		grain (n)
   meyIS tIr 	    sweet corn [maize]
   'ot tIr 		    oat(s) 
   ray' tIr 	    rice
