Tbh, I am fine with Speak with Animals working mainly because we don't have a native "Speak with Monstrosities" spell or effect.
That said, I wouldn't mind things changing and it not working, but I am not sure if a potion is the best solution. I do think it should absolutely be an option, but I am trying to think if there are any spells or effects that would allow communication with the owlbear?
Also it is very possible rule of cool overrides here, because it isn't uncommon for a DM to bend the rules like this to enable an interaction, which I can be fine with as long as it is consistent in regards to owlbears and is not a complete break expanding to other things (in other words, Speak with Animals should not let us talk to elementals or wyverns...)
