Homemade buzzer is an alcoholic beverage which Bootes and Martin drank the night before Martin and Vella's wedding (TOS: "The Lost Warrior").

Notes[edit]

  • According to the non-canonical Encyclopedia Galactica, "buzzer" is the general term given to a variety of alcoholic beverages native to the "outer Colonial provinces," essentially a form of moonshine made of local plant life and "usually aged less than one yahren". Judging from the connotations in "The Lost Warrior," with its Western-type setting, this view is consistent with the aired information, although the book provides additional details that are not canonically sourceable. For example, "excessive consumption" of this substance is a "serious medical and social problem in these lonely outposts, though no cure has been found".[1]
