So another year comes where I get to celebrate my all time favorite WoW holiday…Brewfest. But somehow, some WAY, all of the booze for sale on my pink elekks quest route had absolutely zero alcoholic content whatsoever. Not the Barleybrews, not the Thunderbrews, not even our faithful Gordok brewers. I had to go back to Stormwind to buy…WINE of all things, just to get the elekks to appear. So I want to know. Whose bright idea was it to hold a brewfest, and have all the brews completely non alcoholic? Why must I travel to a normal city vendor just to get my buzz? Why would you do this blizz?

Just have a spritzer.
Everyone always talks about my drinking, but never of my thirst.

I rarely drink. I don’t want a hangover that makes me want to KMS the next day either. I drink maybe every few months. Last one i got i was in bed till 5pm.

I have a vague memory of Blizzard saying they were removing the alcohol from the brews for Brewfest. I don’t remember if it was earlier this year or if it was last year that they said that. I think it had something to do with people complaining (of course) about needing to get drunk to do certain quests.
You have to use the goggles now.
Brewfest is the one time of year where everyone, from Gnomes to Trolls are not judged by how MUCH they drink, but by how little. And I want to know who I need to blame for the lack thereof. Was it the Direbrews again?

The goggles were always an option for people that didn’t want to drink.

Rona rode on Epona and stoles thy brew
I guess Brewfest is supposed to make us forget about the prepatch
Brew first. Patch later. I want to be sufficiently buzzed when the zombies come.
I seen tables with vendors selling alcohol at brewfest, do those not work?
So on top of ruining Brewfest by replacing the Dark Iron invasions with those pitiful “events”, they’ve taken away our BOOZE?
Why must you destroy my favorite holiday, Blizzard?

Nope. The Thunderbrews, Barleybrews, and Gordok Ogres all sell brew…But it’s a lie. It has no alcohol in them at all!
The Pandaren vendors on the other hand. I just noticed that they still contain their potency. I guess blizzard forgot them.

The Brewfest brews are so alcoholic that they take you past being drunk all the way to sober again. They’re an 8-bit integer that gets you drunk by +300, but since 8-bit integers can only go to 255, it rolls over and becomes negative, making you extremely sober!
Personally, I blame the Gnomes. It’s all your mathematics and stuff that did this.
As I stand here at brewfest, I see a dark iron bartender, a kul tiran bartender, a draenai bartender…all of them sell various ales/beers of their people. im totally smashed from them now.
