Brewfest has Arrived!

Brewfest has arrived, and with it, a plethora of flavorful beers, delicious feasts, and games for those both young, and just young of heart!  Clan Ironstout has returned for it’s second year as an installment for the festival, located next to the Thunderbrew tent at the back of the Festival Grounds.  At their booth, there are a ton of fantastic volunteers, freshly tapped Ironstout beers, food supplied by the Cask ‘n’ Anvil, and activities to keep you busy for hours!

Keep reading for the menu, the game rules, and a full guide with details about the Ironstout beer-booth at the Festival!

Drinks!

We will be providing seven different beers from our own Ironforge Brewery, snacks and meals from the Cask ‘n’ Anvil, as well as tons of mini-games with our own set of prizes!

Beers provided include traditional recipes, both new and old.

Brewfest Märzen: Malty, sweet, and strong.  This lager has been fermenting in the cold snow of Ironforge since the Spring.  This is the featured Brewfest Brew!

Diamond King Kristallweizen:  A crystal clear wheat ale.  Light and crisp on the tongue, yielding a refreshing citrus flavor.

Anvilmar Altbier:  Copper-colored ale, brewed like a lager.  The lager fermentation leads to a crisper, cleaner beer with a muted fruity flavor.

Dun Morogh Doppelbock: A strong, malty, dark lager.

Bronzebeard Blonde:  An easy-drinking, golden ale.  Subtly sweet with just a pinch of bitterness on the finish.

Ironstout’s Iron Stout:  A rich, malty stout.  This brew is the clan’s flagship.  It resembles the color of Iron.

Snowdrift Shandy: An easy-drinking option at festivals, this half-hefeweizen, half-juice concoction is popular with light drinkers.

Food!

Food at this year’s Ironstout tent will once again be provided by Modarin Slatefist, owner of the popular Cask ‘n’ Anvil tavern in Ironforge.  The full menu has yet to be announced; however, several traditional festival snacks will be provided.

Brewfest Pretzel:  The essential Brewfest snack, complete with stone-ground mustard, or beer-cheese for dipping.

Giant Iced Cookie:  A rune-stone shaped ginger-cookie, iced with a personalized message!

Coldridge Cupcake:  Large chocolate cupcakes with fresh berry filling, straight from Coldridge Valley.

Games!

Once again, Clan’ Ironstout’s brewtent will feature games with several prizes.  We should have another Mekgineer’s Chopper, several souvenir steins, and magically created alemental pets to give away, along with many other fantastic prizes!

Make sure to come and participate in these mini-games to earn tickets for your prizes.  We will once again feature regular drinking contests, a drinking contest tournament, drunken ram racing, and drunken brawling!  You may also choose to bark for Ironstout’s Brewery for tickets, as well!  Who knows?  Will you earn enough to get a brew named after you?!  (Please see below about tickets.  They are for GHI and TRP3e users only.)

Drinking Contest:  Challenge up to three friends and drink ‘till ye drop!  Last one standing wins!  You may challenge your friends at any time!

Participants will receive 15 tickets, winners will receive 30!

Participants will be handed several mugs of Brewfest Beer!

When the hosts says “Round X!  DRINK!”  You’ll do as follows:

Drink your in-game brew > Roll 20 > emote the result.

The threshold to meet or beat is the round number + 4.

Round 1, you need a 5 or better.

Round 2, you need a 6 or better.

Etc, etc. until there is one person left standing!

If you fail your drinking roll, you gain a sick-point.

At 3 sick points, you spew your brew, or pass out!  Better luck next time!

Last one standing wins!

If the last few participants go out at the same time, the highest final roll wins!

Drinking Tournament: Same as the Drinking Contest, but will be held in brackets, and with great prizes!  This will only be held once on opening night!  This event will be hosted at 7:00 PM server time.

Winners of each bracket will receive winners of each bracket will receive 50 tickets!  Winners of the whole contest will receive 100, as well as a Mekingineer’s Chopper!  Runners up will receive Alemental pets!

The tournament will use the same rules at the standard contest.

The difference; however, will be that each bracket increases the starting number to beat by 5!  (It only makes sense, as you’ll be much drunker at this point!)

Bracket 1 - Round 1, meet or beat a 5.

Bracket 2 - Round 1, meet or beat a 10.

Bracket 3 - Round 1, meet or beat a 15.

Bracket 4 - Sudden Death

Drunken Ram Racing: While we do-not condone drinking and driving outside of Azeroth, doing so in Ironforge during Brewfest is to be expected.

Participants will receive 15 tickets, winners will receive 30!

Referees will be present to watch for cheaters, so no cutting corners!

The referee will tell everyone to begin!

Players will drink until they are “completely smashed!” and then mount up on a ground mount - preferably a ram.

They will then race their peers around Ironforge’s outer ring!

First one back to the referee at the Brew-booth wins!

Don’t hesitate, or you’ll fall behind!

The path of the race is posted below!

Drunken Brawl:  Strip down to just casual clothing and drink until you’re smashed!  Then challenge a friend to a fight!

Winners will receive 10 tickets!  Officially sanctioned fights only!

Official rules to come last minute! - Sorry!

Daily Quest: Bark for Ironstout:  (GHI USERS ONLY)  Take a ride around Ironforge, barking for Ironforge Brewery!

Quest completion rewards 35 tickets!

Players using GHI will receive an item called “Bark for Ironstout”

Players who are already mounted on a ground mount may begin the quest.  Those who are not will be automatically mounted on a ram - if they have one - and must click the item again to begin the quest.

Players will race around Ironforge, using the extra-action button to bark for the brewery near the designated flags.  They will gain a buff for each zone.

Once players have collected all four buffs, they may click the bark button one more time outside of the city to complete the quest.

Stay mounted the entire time, and do-not click off any buffs until you’ve received your reward, or you will be unable to complete the quest.

Pest Control:  Wyrmtongue demons, masterfully disguised as Dwarves, infiltrate the festival in an attempt to deprive the Alliance of their morale increasing holiday beer!  Be careful, however, because beer-goggle-vision helps to make the demon’s taped-on beards much more convincing.  Attempting to eject an actual drunken patron will result in a punch in the face!  (This special event will occur only once on opening night.)

Participants will receive 20 tickets!

Once the event occurs triggering this mini-game, participants will join a raid group for important in-character information.

Once the game is triggered, players will split into 5-man parties. 4 players to each volunteer DM.

8 markers will be placed around the festival grounds to represent potential pests.  Only 5 of these are Demons, 3 are plastered Brewfest patrons!

Players will RP to find out who is a demon, and who is a patron.  When they are ready to attempt to eject the pest, they will announce it to the DM of their group.

If the player attempts to eject a patron, they are punched in the face, and knocked out of the running!

Once all of your demons have been removed, your party may collect their rewards!

Prizes!

The games will yield their own set of prizes, including that of Brewfest Prize Tickets!  Prize tickets may be redeemed by any member of Clan Ironstout for prizes!

20 Tickets - Take home a crate of Ironstout beer!  Your choice of flavor!

50 Tickets - Take home a cask of Ironstout beer!  Your choice of flavor!

100 Tickets - You will receive a personalized souvenir stein!

200 Tickets - A custom beer will be brewed in your honor!  You choose the style of beer, too!

OOC Information:

We’re back!  Come visit us!  Can’t wait to see you.  This is an IC brew-tent much like the Barleybrews and the Thunderbrews, run by some pretty fantastic folks!

About Time and Location:  

ICly we will be in a tent like all of the others, but OOCly you will find us on the Podium where High Tinker gives his opening ceremony speech.

As far as hours of operation are concerned, I plan on running the booth every night that I possibly can; however, real life will - as I’m sure - get in the way.  Just check nightly, and there might be some RP going on!  

The absolute most important time to make it will be opening day:  September the 20th at 6 pm server time.

Lastly, keep in mind that on Saturday, September 30th, the Dwarven Clan Moot will take the utmost priority.  Brewfest goers will still get some attention; however, the Dwarven community has the evening reserved.  (Generally speaking, I also happen to run the guild hosting this month’s moot!)

About Add-ons:  

A lot of our RP is run via an addon called Gryphonheart Items, otherwise known as GHI.  It is a custom item generation addon that allows for all sorts of incredible RP.  While it’s not mandatory that you have the addon, to earn tickets and exchange them for prizes, you will be required to use the addon.

NOTE ABOUT GHI:  Currently the addon DOES work as long as you are not using other Bag addons. It is a little buggy, but you can access the main bag.  That said, there is a manual fix available >>>here<<< that completely fixes the addon!

I will personally be using TRP3′s about section for information regarding the festival tent.  If you want to see menus and everything, be sure to have a viable Roleplay addon!

About the Beers:

Beers provided will be GHI items; however, there are also in-game substitutes, as well.  Even if you don’t have the addon, please come RP with us! <3

About the Food:  

All food will be RP and in-game food only.  No GHI here!

About the Games:  

GHI will only be absolutely required for one of the games.  The rest of the games can be completed without addons.  This said; however, only GHI users, and TRP3 Extended users, will be able to earn Tickets and prizes from said tickets.

About the Prizes:

The prizes are a combination of actual in-game items, as well as RP prizes!  RP prizes can be used by GHI users, or just RP’d as well!

Special note about the drinking contest.  The drinking contest will be hosted fairly regularly, and is a /roll based system.  The prizes for the contest are very real, and the drinking contest tournament will only be held on the opening day, Sept. 20th..  The prizes for the tournament include in-game mounts and pets!

Thanks in advanced to everyone who comes to participate, and a special thank you to all of this year’s volunteers and sponsors!
