Wandering Drogard's Brew Book Vol. 1  

 

Merchants

Greetings, me old muckers! In this edition of my famous and most worthy brew books (over one hundred copies sold Thicket-wide!) I, Drogard of the Vale, brewer to the rich and famous, will tell of my latest tour through the outer lands and beyond!

I've got some treats in store for ye all! Grab thy casks!

Kaladim - Well the old place hasn't changed much. Still bearded, but such lovely brew! One of note is the Constitutional - ye Gods, what a drink!

The locals tell me that it's made from essence of magic! They add soda water, some fermented yarrow, two local fungi, then pop it all into a bottle! With a corking device and a cork each time, it stays fresh for an age! My bottle lasted me all the way through the week!

I found that mixing yarrow and water makes an excellent fermentation. Earthy!

The best corking devices, sad to say, I buy from the gnomes.

Grobb - What a hike! I was met with the usual hostility, which included a real stomach-shaker of a brew! If you're squeamish, maybe ye might want to avoid the Liquid Meat they drink down there.

Soda water, cask (and corked thankfully!), malt and then three juiced up meats! My host used gator, rat and snake; he seemed to find mandrake and acid was all it took to "release dem flavourz", on each meat.

It sounds vile, but it tastes grand!

Oggok - Bags packed, off to the Oggies! The Triple Bile was my favourite: putrid, underbulk and skyash bile, all swirled together in a poison vial! Ye can't say they don't warn ye! Corked up to keep it fresh and green, it had a shot of absinthe in it too! Every good absinthe is: wormwood, brandy and brimstone - yum!

Qeynos - Ahh, the city of culture. Civilisation. Refinement. Nasty rashes, too, Gods curse them. The tea was good though!

Tea leaves, cream, water, eucalyptus for flavour, a dab of magic essence and then the secret ingrediant [sic] - Bayle's Delight!
