Well, what I feel the question is, is if Blizzard is keeping track of these right now in 2.4 because of the achievements.

Example: I drink all the boozes right now, when 3.0 (and the achievements go live) will they list under my Achievements?

I wonder, because the booze has a 2day duration.

Comment by warrigt

Is this "Brewmaster %t" or "%t Brewmaster"? I can't recall seeing any prefix titles (heavens, correct me), but this one would make sense

This achievement cannot be completed by Death Knights until 2010's Brewfest because of the Brew of the Year achievement. You need to become a Brew of the Month member in 2009's Brewfest, then obtain the next 12 months of brews.

Blizzard has removed the Brew of the Year requirement from the meta-achievement and instead added in its place Brew of the Month.

The achievement is still there, just not part of the meta-achievement. We should be putting a new achievement into the meta that just requires you to sign up for the Brew of the Year club, not to drink all 12 of them.

Comment by TheSteelPhantom

I'm not so concerned with the drinking achievement as I am with the Have Keg, Will Travel achievement. It requires that you obtain a Brewfest Mount and is required for this overall-Brewmaster achievement.

If you're shooting for the Violet Proto-Drake mount from the What A Long, Strange Trip It's Been achievement, you could get all the way up to Brewfest and never get the Brewfest Mount and hence never get the very last achievement you would need for your drake. =(

I sincerely hope the mount achievement is changed to not be required for the Brewmaster title.

Since they took out these "rare" item achievements from meta achievements of all other holidays and they also did not include Veteran Nanny in the meta for Children's Week, they should take Brew of the Year out for sure. The rest is alright to get and fair is fair for the mount because you have to get a Sinister Squashling for the Hallows End meta. However, having something in the meta that required you to know about the achievements before the system was live is ridiculous. Brew of the Year should be an achievement, but it should be stricken from the meta like Lovely Luck Is On Your Side was from Fool of Love and so on.

Quoting the blue, "Anyone who decided to start getting achievements at some point after Brewfest will have to go through the full year of Brew of the Year; Death Knights are included but are no more special than any other new character in this regard." Simply put that is incorrect, the achievement system was not even in place last Brewfest, so you would have had to done a lot of trolling and such to find that it even existed for the meta or at all.

Comment by Whiterabbit

The thing that really bugs me with the Blizz Posts is that they continually use the term "casual players". Apparently anybody who does every single Achievement for the Violet Drake but missed Brewfest in 2008 is a "casual player" and only people who were privvy to learn the achievement earlier are "dedicated" and worth giving the drake to.

I hope Blizz realizes that many people are dedicated players but a) did not know about the brewfest 12 month membership and b)will have completed an entire set of achievements that they 'dedicated' themselves to.

Point b should especially be taken into consideration as dedication is the key to the Drake, not sitting beside the mailbox for a year.

The icon looks like the Pandaren Brewmaster from Warcraft 3

Comment by 83654

The icon is taken from the artwork of Blizzard's 2005 April Fools' joke.

Comment by 37753

Can you possibly complete this in one event if you haven't got any clothing, no mount, no tickets, no brew club previously.... nothing?

Comment by Kookami

The achievement icon (since 3.0.9, previously a regular keg) is a Pandaren Brewmaster, notably the only race to out-booze a dwarf.

For any aspiring brewmaster I suggest starting your research with the final 'bonus' campaign of Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne, which chronicles the adventures of a Pandaren Brewmaster by the name of Chen Stormstout (oh, and some orc makes an appearance), and to find yourself a copy of Jackie Chan's Drunken Master.

For Pandaria!

Hey!

Since i got all other parts of the World Events Meta achievement I'm ofc going to get this aswell ^^ But something is bothering me... Since i don't have any membership or any clothes I will need to get 550 Brewfest Prize Tokens... And I don't remember if I was very skilled on ram riding... Please! Give me a calculation of how many prize tokens I can get in 1 year.

/Manuni

Comment by 281149

This event lasts for 14 days and ive killed the Direbrew dude last year (Though this was before I knew about the achievment system) so I didnt see fit to buy any of the clothing or the membership.

So when the event comes out this year I wont be able to do the Direbrew quest again (Which is minus 40 coins already) and there are only 3 dailies worth 10 coins, 15 coins and How many deliveries you can make (Which as horde averages at about 7 - 8 - So 15 coins average)

This is 40 coins a day and you need 550 to buy the membership and entire brewfest clothing set.

10 days of it is 400 coins
Another 4 days is 160

Which means the total coins you can get throughout the event is 560 coins - Which is EXTREMELY tight and imho stupid. Can anybody clarify that this is the case because I'm starting to worry about me getting my protodrake as these are the last set of achiemvents I need and I dont wish to wait another damn year to finish it off -_-

Comment by 400365

Is it just me or does it also seem somewhat excessive having to get the Brewfest Mount as well? relying on a miniscule drop rate AND having to split that between 5 party members? That seems like the hardest achievement to get.

Comment by blamo

If you have a read of the 3.2 ptr patch notes you'll notice theyv'e changed the criteria to own a brewfest mount OR transform your mount into one via a brewfest hop.

Comment by Foruisdk

The achievement Drunken Stupor can be done in Dragonblight.
First go to Wintergarde Keep.
Second go to the path to Wintergarde Keep from Wyrmrest Temple and head right.
Thrid jump down and you will get it
Or just jump from Scryer's Tier.
P.S. I've done my Going Down? achievement there.

Comment by 457977

What is the possible lowest level to get this achievement? I read that Blizzard updated the quests to level 80. I only started playing recently and my highest level character is 62. I really hate to wait another year to get the title.

Comment by 147431

On the first day of Brewfest you'll be able to acquire 85 tokens. Every day after the first will be the standard 40 tokens suggesting what ScorchPSO says is accurate (my dailies don't reset for another 20 minutes but I'll update once they do and I have first hand count). Thus the Brewfest event will break down as such:

Day 1: 85 tokens
Days 2 - 14: 40 tokens

Total: 605 tokens

If, however, you were able to do the Brewfest quests just after the event launched and before the dailies reset on your server, you'll essentially have secured yourself an additional day of tokens. Thus bringing your grand total from 605 to 645.

The Brewmaster meta achievement requires a total of 552 tokens when you factor in the 2 required to purchase Fresh Brewfest Hops for the Have Keg, Will Travel achievement. If, on the other hand, you have a Brewfest mount from last year or get lucky with a drop this year, you can save the two tokens.

Either way it's going to be a tight count. You will have to do thirteen days worth of Brewfest dailies, thus only giving yourself a one day grace period; two days if you managed that "extra" day. Luckily the Brewfest dailies are quick and easy to get done.

Edit: So some notes from the first day of ordinary Brewfest dailies. Expect your mileage to vary, I forgot that the amount of tokens received from keg racing is entirely dependent on how efficient you are with it. I personally pulled off 28 tokens though I expect I could have pushed over 30 which will be my goal for tomorrow. As such your daily token gain might be anywhere from 35 a day (25 from Bark for the Thunderbrews! / Bark for the Barleybrews! and One Time, When I was Drunk and 10 from Do you still need some help moving kegs from the crash site... ?) to upwards of 55+ a day.

That's also not to mention how Do you still need some help moving kegs from the crash site... ? is on an 18 hour reset timer. Thus you could potentially do it a total of 18 times throughout the Brewfest event if you hit it up every chance it's available.

All that said I think the goal for 552 tokens is much more reasonable at this point.

Comment by Menjina

Thist is totally wrong. You are able to get around 1135 Tokens. Depends on how good you are at the
ram-riding and keg-returning. And if you are able to do this quest exactly every 18hours.

Windscar wrote in a different thread:

You need 550 tokens, if you are aiming to do the achievement this year. It will be tough if you don't like ram racing. (Hat + Dress + Boots + Membership)

40 For killing Diren Corebrew and handing in the quest. (Once only)
0-48 - 2 Tokens per ram race (up to twice daily, max 24 a race, 18 hour cooldown since you started your last race.)
15 - Tokens for barking either brew within the city on the ram (daily, ride ram to 4 areas.)
10 For defending against the Dark iron attacks (daily, every 30 minutes the Dark Iron appear with their machines and attempt to steal the booze, you pick up the mugs on the tables and chuck it at them, if you successfully defend the beer, an item spawns in the middle that looks like a gear and you take the quest.)

14 days for the duration of the festival, 15 if you started the dailies on Saturday morning before dailies reset (before 4 a.m)

1062 tokens if you are started event after 4 a.m on Sept. 20
1135 tokens if you started event between 12am - 4am on Sept. 20

Comment by 455620

Although some people are saying you need 550 tokens for Brewmaster, this is not true.
In fact, you need only 350.

Disturbing the Peace, (https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/achievement=293) requires you to have 3 Brewfest clothing items. To purchase all 3 it costs 350 tokens. To save yourself from building up another,un-needed , 200 tokens for the Brew of the Month Membership (https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/achievement=2796) , simply return all 3 clothing items to the vendor for a refund after completeing the achievment, and then buy the Brew of the Month Membership form.

BREWMASTER ACHIEVEMENT

This is an overview for the steps to complete the achievement.

Start in Ironforge - in front of the bank pick up the quest for the Brewmaster Festival

Brewmaster Festival - Head out of the front gates of IF its set up at the first crossroads.

Pick up all the quests in the tent area. Also ride to Kharanos and pick up the quest for the BRD, Black Rock Depths bar boss, Coren Direbrew.

Head back to the tented area and complete the daily quests. You can collect 40+ tokens a day. So you need to do all the daily quests for a few days for the achievement. There is a gnome on some boxes opposite side from the ogres who takes the prize tokens and gives rewards, Beibi Quikswitch.(first day apr 125, 40+ for dailys thereafter)

Goldark Snipehunter gives you a pair of goggles. These "make you drunk" without drinking. Get these as a lot of quests you will need to be completely drunk before you can see the quest objectives.(Goldark is the quest giver for the Eelk and Wolpertinger quests)

Hop into a BRD group when you are able. They buffed this boss with 300k hp, take a few friends so you can kill him multiple times for lewt!

Drunken Stupor - Go to Shattrah. Take the elevator or fly up - and go to the landing to the right or northeast of the elevator. Climb on your mount, jump your mount off the platform, and don't forget to put your goggles on. (Also good opportunity for "Ultimate Triage")

Quest Cliff Notes
Wolpertinger - they are all over the place at the festival, get completely smashed and you can see them, net them, wait a sec and they will be captured.
Elekks - traveling quest - again you have to be drunk to see them - click on an Eelk and then click on your dispersion ray.
Down with the Dark Iron - There will be an event where the dark iron dwarves try to take over the party. Target the dwarves and knock them out with the beers on the tables. At the end of the event a quest giver will appear, be sure to stay to the end to complete the quest.
Mounted Quests - You can whip your ram, put the whip on your action bar and just tap the key and go flat out - hit apple barrels to recover, 26 token max.

Dailies(reset at 3AM - Barrels Every 12 hours)
There are only 3:
Dark Iron Dwarf Attack - You have to wait for the event - 10
Calling out in the Capital City - 15
Barrel Running - hit all the barrels - 26
Max - 51

Clothes and Brew of the Month Buy hops to change your mount(cheapest). Then buy the clothes first and all at once (total 350 tokes) . From what I've read you can sell all of them back and get your tokens back. Then buy the Brew of the Month club and a pet as well.

I missed the first day of brewfest can I still get the title?

Comment by 459642

First of all, let me say, yes if you only missed 2 day you can still get the title. And This is my guide:

Before we start

There's Quests and dailies, Quests = about 100 tokens, dailies = 40-50 tokens a day. You need a total of 552 tokens for the 'Brewmaster' title. 40 a day x 14 days of brewfest = 560 + 100 = 660, more than enough. 660-40 = 620 - 40 = 580 which means you can skip 2 days and still get the Title.

There are 3 dailies.

This One time, When i was drunk: Defend the brewfest camp Every Half an Hour. If ally wins they Drop an ite behind, pick up the quest and Return that for 10 tokens every day!

Ram Riding: Barleybrew/Thunderbrew - You go to ironforge and 'Advertise' at the Bank, Mystic Ward, Millatay Ward and Hall of Explorers. To advertise you just Run up there and u say Stuff such as "Can You feel the Magic in the Air? Thunderbrews are on the loose!" OR for ram Riding every day you can talk to the Guy near the Ram stables and do the kegs from Khranos Every day. You get 2 Tokens per keg.

Direbrew: Kill Coren Direbrew! Yes, that is a daily! =)

Brew of the Month Club

You can Simply get it for 200 Tokens. Speak to the Token Trader (Belbi Quikswitch) to get it when you have 200 tokens.

Belbi quikswitch is near the barleybrews' and Anne Summers (the Cheese Vendor) in the Brewfest Camp in Dun Morogh.

Dunken Stuper

Fall 65 yard while Completely Smashed.

There's alot of Good Places in Shatt for this, I did the Sryers Elavator, Stormwind Harbor is good too, or you can simply use your Flying mount and Fall!

The brewfest Diet

Spiced Onion Cheese, Anne Summers, the cheese vendor - and like I said above, shes near Belbi quikswitch.

Dried Sausage, Succulent Sausage, Savory Sausage, Pickled Sausage, Spicy Smoked Sausage and the Golden link is from Kerian Donoghue (the Sausage vendor) who is Near the Gordoks'.

The Essential Brewfest Pretzel is from Arlen Lochlan who is Near the Barleybrews' ( the Bread Vendor)

Have Keg, Will Travel

Transform your mount into a Brewfest Mount useing Brewfest Hops/Obtain a Brewfest Mount.

My advice is do the Hops XD

Hops Cost 2 Brewfest Tokens (from Belbi) when the Mount is a 4% drop rate from Coren Direbrew, and if it does drop, your rolling agaist 4 other people making it 20% for you to get it.

Direbrewfest

Kill Coren Direbrew.

When its your first time pick it up in Khranos, after that its BRD.

The way in : Go into Blackrock Depths, make a right then kill the 3 bad dudes. Then Click the Control lever then your there!

The Fight is easy - You need to kill him 5 times for everyone to get the Quest done. Just Tank and Spank, Use AoEs on him.

Does your Wolpertinger linger?

Just pick up the Quest and trap 5 of them Note you must be drunk to see them. For the quest reward you don't get tokens, But a cute lil Wolpertinger!

Strange Brew

Barleybrew Clear
Barleybrew light
Barleybrew Dark
Is Bought from the Barleybrews'! Who is Next to Belbi and the bread vendor.

Thunderbrew Stout
Thunderbrew Ale
Thunder 45
Is Bought from the Thunderbrews'! Who is Next to Anne summers (the Cheese Vendor)

Gordok Grog
Mudders Milk
Orge Mead
Is Bought from the Gordoks'! Who is Next to Brother Cartwright (the Wine Vendor)

Down with the Dark Iron!

Defend the Brewfest Camp by Chugging down Brews and Chucking them, which the Dark Iron attack is every half an Hour. They Leave Behind an Item if your faction wins (ally/horde) and you return it and yay! you got an achievment!

Disturbing the Peace

350 tokens for all three peices of Brewfest Clothing, Be Drunk, Wear your Cloths, Be in Dal and DANCE!

Thanks!

Thanks for reading My comment, I hope you thought it wasn't a waste of Time!

~Snowie

Edit: Unless you really like keeping the brewfest clothing, you can but em' once u get 350 ( All at the same time ) do the achievment, return the clothing for 350 again, and then but the brew of the month membership forum for 200 =)

Comment by 53974

For those that don't want to have to go all the way to Darnassus for , you can get them in Shatt when going for .
For some reason only the Teldrassil Pink Elekks show up around the center of Shatt... but they do count for the quest. =)

Comment by 266060

Just for the newbs out there, there's barrels of apples along the way for Do you still need some help moving kegs from the crash site? which enable you to maintain full speed for the entire duration without your mount getting fatigued.

Comment by Etreum

I have no clue what I am doing wrong with the Barrel Running daily. I go full speed, catch and return the barrels - no slow downs or stops and still only got 14 tokens yesterday, 8 tokens today. I'll never make it! :-(

Saw the message above regarding buying and selling the outfit... I already bought the club membership.

Any clues on what I may be doing wrong? Thanks!

Comment by DrMrsTheMonarch

I love a holiday that encourages both drinking and driving really fast.

Comment by 476000

Ok here is a question if you have all the achievements other than the three that r gonna be removed next patch will you still get the brewmaster title after u install the update ? or will u never be able to get it

Comment by 26084

The Disturbing the Peace achievement has also been removed from this meta-achievement. This means you do not have to buy the clothing.

Comment by Allakhazam

You can always return the clothes you bought from the vendor back right after you use them for the 'disturbing the peace' achievement.

Anyway, here is a guide I wrote for Brewmaster, it has links to individual guides I wrote for the meta achievements, as well as the non-metas.
