Hmmm...too sweet, and far too dainty.

I'm thinking that, based on descriptions, the orcs were not much into refinement, but would get their libations as quickly and easily as possible; therefore, straight turpentine (the oil, not the resin), which can be got from any pine and was ingested for medicinal purposes up until recently, fermented potato mash (potatoes, because they grow underground and in very hostile climates), and a chaser of chicory.
