Just in regards to alchemists and barbarians, can a Drunken Brute Alchemist drink an extract or mutagen as a move action as per Raging Drunk?
If it's for a home campaign, I see no reason to not allow this. They're just fancy names for potions!
By RAW, no. They are different things with different rules, if you want to drink it as a move action it has to be a potion or alcohol.
You could always house rule it if you like, but it wouldn't be fully balanced.
I wouldn't allow it.
By the rules, they're not potions. More importantly, there's a balance issue. An alchy's extracts are not potions in that they don't cost money and aren't limited to level 3. They're a lot more powerful because of that.
It's okay if a barbarian can use potions as move actions since if you're using them all the time, you're going to pay a lot of gold for this. So you'll probably limit this.
The alchy uses them all the time.
