You can do what i did...
I don't know if it should work that way or they are going to fix it, but it's was the best option for me.
First choose the smugglers and DON'T turn in the quest! You can still summon the vendor and still get [item=113094] , [item=113096] , [item=116915] and other buff items for the zone. I did the quests with the goblins to the east and the bonus objectives while waiting for the 10 minutes cds.
When you are done and got everything you wanted from [npc=82459], abandon the quest Orders, Commander?, accept it again and choose the brewery and voilà :)

If this is a permanent choice, it's quite possibly the worst example of "content vs convenience".
The Inn gives you a permanent teleport spell, plus 20% bonus XP in the zone. (convenience)
The Trading Post gives you access to vendors that sell a variety of stuff, including a toy and a follower, thus, not choosing this option means you can never 100% collect all the followers. (content)Edit: The above was posted prior to WoD even releasing, and thus, prior to knowing we could swap outposts. Don't downvote me for not clairvoyantly seeing the future.
You can change your choice at level 100, and with 10k gold.

Description
Commander {name}, it's an honor. We're barely holding on, sir. We have a week's supplies at best, assuming we have any troops left to supply in that time. We have just enough material left to put up an inn or a trading post. The inn would allow us to station reinforcements here, while the trading post would allow supply routes with the outcasts nearby. We need your authorization for the project, commander. It's your decision.
