Brewfest Basics#

Overview of Brewfest#

Brewfest is one of the coolest in-game holidays in World of Warcraft, bursting with fun activities, games, and, of course, loads of ale. It usually takes place from mid-September to early October, aligning with the real-world Oktoberfest. Here’s everything you need to know to get the most out of this boozy, dwarven-inspired festivity.

How to Get Started#

The moment Brewfest begins, you’ll get a notification, and you can start by heading to major cities like Orgrimmar for the Horde or Ironforge for the Alliance. Look for Brewfest Camp, a bustling ground full of NPCs ready to kick off the merriment.

Daily Quests and Tokens#

Much of the fun comes from daily quests. Completing these will reward you with Brewfest Prize Tokens. These tokens are your currency to purchase special event items, like festive attire, mounts, and pets. Key quests include:

“Bark for the Brewery!”: Help advertise your favorite brewery by running around town.
”There and Back Again”: A ram racing quest that tests your skills in handling these stubborn animals.
”This One Time, When I Was Drunk…”: Fight hozen and other mischievous creatures trying to spoil the fun.

Exclusive Brewfest Gear#

Who doesn’t love fresh gear? Brewfest offers some awesome, limited-time items. Every year, new mugs, hats, and unique weapons become available. The standout pieces to look for are:

Brewfest Ram Mounts: There are few different rams you can earn, including Swift Brewfest Ram for the Alliance or Great Brewfest Kodo for the Horde.
Brewfest Garb: Pick up a Brewfest Hat, Clothes, or Shoes to look the part.
Synthebrew Goggles: Wear these to experience the world in a fuzzy, ale-fueled haze.

Boss Battle: Coren Direbrew#

Head to Blackrock Depths with your friends and challenge Coren Direbrew, a dastardly Dark Iron Dwarf. Defeating him nets you some sweet loot, like the elusive Great Brewfest Kodo and Direbrew’s Remote, which lets you summon a mole machine for a free trip back to the tavern. You can encounter him once per day per person, so run it often!

Festive Activities#

Brewfest isn’t just about quests and gear; there are loads of mini-games and events to keep you entertained.

Ram Racing: Test your riding skills, but be mindful of your mount’s stamina.
Keg Runs: Deliver as many kegs as possible within time limits to earn extra tokens.
Tapping the Keg: Join the brewmasters in tapping massive kegs and sharing drinks with fellow players.

Achievement Hunting#

For those who love collecting achievements, Brewfest has plenty. Completing these gives you more bragging rights:

“Brewmaster” Title: Earn this by completing all the Brewfest achievements like “Down With The Dark Iron” (repelling the Dark Iron Dwarves attack) and “Brew of the Month” (sampling monthly brews).
Other Snazzy Titles and Badges: There are exclusive, whimsical titles and badges only available during the event, enhancing your character’s profile.

Tips & Tricks#

Farm Tokens Early: Grinding daily quests early in the event ensures you rack up plenty of tokens.
Group Up for Coren Direbrew: This makes defeating him quicker, increasing your chance of better loot.
Save Up: Some items or mounts can be costly in tokens, so manage your earnings wisely.

Brewfest is a celebration of beer, camaraderie, and dwarven spirit. Whether you go all-in for the mounts and gear or just want to immerse yourself in the festivities, this event offers something for everyone. Grab your virtual mug, toast with friends, and dive into all the drunken fun Brewfest has to offer!

That wraps up the Brewfest overview. Next section, we’ll look into more detailed strategies for the daily quests and boss fight against Coren Direbrew. Until then, enjoy the brews and cheers!

Brewfest Basics: Daily Quests#

So, you’ve found yourself knee-deep in the merry madness of Brewfest in World of Warcraft. Whether you’re here for the booze, the laughs, or the epic loot, daily quests are your ticket to maximizing your loot and fun. But what’s the best way to tackle these repeatable activities? Let’s dive in and break it down.

What Are Daily Quests?#

Daily quests are repeatable tasks that you can do once every day. During Brewfest, these dailies are themed around the festival, and they usually involve fun, wacky activities. Completing daily quests awards Brewfest Prize Tokens which you can exchange for great rewards like pets, mounts, and costumes.

Where to Find Daily Quests#

To get started, head to your faction’s Brewfest camp outside the main cities—Ironforge for the Alliance and Orgrimmar for the Horde. Look for NPCs with blue exclamation marks; these are your daily quest givers.

Popular Brewfest Daily Quests#

1. Bark for Your Brewery!#

Objective: This quest is a true test of your mount-riding skills. You’re tasked with riding around the city and shouting out praises for one of the breweries participating in Brewfest.
Tips: Follow the sparkly trail and keep an eye on your Brewfest Mount’s speed. This quest is timed, so make sure to start your run as soon as you accept the quest.

2. “This One Time, When I Was Drunk…”#

Objective: In this quest, you’ll need to gather samples from various kegs scattered around the Brewfest grounds. Each keg might give you a different type of brew, which adds to your collection.

Popular Brewfest Activities#

Brewfest is one of the most beloved holidays in World of Warcraft, bringing heaps of fun activities, tasty brews, and some sweet loot. Let’s jump into some of the most popular things you can do during Brewfest.

1. Keg Runs#

When was the last time you combined beer and riding a ram? Keg Runs are a quintessential Brewfest activity. Players can participate in these timed challenges where you need to race on a Brewfest Ram to deliver kegs as quickly as possible. The faster you are, the more Brewfest Prize Tokens you earn. These tokens can be exchanged for unique Brewfest items.

Quick Tips#

Make sure you have good control over your ram. Overworking it tires the ram, which slows you down.
Keep an eye out for speed boosts along the way. Hitting these boosts can shave valuable seconds off your time.

2. Barking Quests#

Ever want to run through the streets yelling about how amazing Dwarven or Orgrimmar brews are? During Brewfest, you can take on barking quests. You’ll get on a Brewfest Ram and race through your faction’s major city, shouting about the festival’s ales and earning tokens for your enthusiastic promotion.

Quick Tips#

Familiarize yourself with the city layout. Knowing the quickest routes will help.
Accept the quest and start immediately to get the best time.

3. Ram Racing#

Brewfest wouldn’t be complete without some serious ram racing. This mini-game has you race against the clock to reach different checkpoints. It’s similar to the Keg Run but focuses purely on speed and endurance.

Quick Tips#

Watch the ram stamina bar. Push it just enough to maintain speed without exhausting your ram.
Use all available buffs and boosts for maximum speed.

4. Daily Quest: “This One Time, When I Was Drunk…”#

Each day during Brewfest, you can complete a fun daily quest like “This One Time, When I Was Drunk…” This quest has you retelling exaggerated stories from nights out drinking. Completing these daily quests nets you additional Brewfest Prize Tokens.

Quick Tips#

Make this quest part of your daily routine to rack up tokens.
They’re mostly easy and quick—perfect for players with limited time.

5. Boss Battle: Coren Direbrew#

One of the major highlights of Brewfest is taking down Coren Direbrew in Blackrock Depths. This boss fight is a seasonal favorite because Coren drops some very special loot, including epic trinkets and mounts. Gather your friends and head to the Grim Guzzler to challenge him.

Quick Tips#

Use the Dungeon Finder to quickly get your party together.
Don’t skip this! Even if you don’t get what you want the first time, you can farm him daily for more chances at loot.

6. Brew of the Month Club#

For those dedicated to all things brew, join the Brew of the Month Club. By purchasing a “Brew of the Year” membership, each month you’ll receive a sample of a unique brew in the mail. Each drink has fun, sometimes surprising, effects.

Remember, these brews come with special effects. Try them out in different situations for extra fun!
