Description

So you want to help out at Brewfest? I've got the perfect task for ya. I'll put you on one of my racing rams and you head down to Kharanos. I've got some kegs I need to pick up.

Flynn Firebrew is waiting on a hill near a stack of kegs. He'll toss you a keg when you get near, then you run the keg back here and toss the keg to Pol Amberstill. You can only carry one at a time.

Ready?

BREWFEST 2009: How to easily earn 30+ Brewfest Prize Token per run:


  1. Talk to Neill Ramstein (46.40) to start the "daily" quest.*

  2. Place the Ram Racing Reins you receive from Neill Ramstein on your ActionBar. You will find the item in your bag.

  3. Spam the Ram Racing Reins immediately to enter a gallop and maintain it.

  4. Ride to apple basket #2 (47.45), in the crossroads after the bridge.

  5. Ride to apple basket #3 (47.49), paralell to the gnomes' workshop across the road.

  6. Ride to Flynn Firebrew (45.52) in Kharanos, but do a 180 degree turn (see Joroesan's comment) the second (!) he throws the Portable Brewfest Keg at you.

  7. Ride to apple basket #3 (47.49).

  8. Ride to apple basket #2 (47.45).

  9. Deliver the Portable Brewfest Keg to Pol Amberstill (46.40) back at the Brewfest tent where you started.

  10. Repeat.

The trick is to only use apple basket #2 and #3, turning around the second you've received or turned in a Portable Brewfest Keg. Apple basket #1 and #4 should only be used as a last resort. The range on the NPC's tosses is fairly generous, so you can turn around just as you pass the small stone wall in front of Flynn Firebrew (apple basket #4) and at the Brewfest banner in front of Pol Amberstill (apple basket #1 aka start)

Maintain the gallop at all times (hammer those Ram Racing Reins on your ActionBar)!

Practice makes perfect. GOOD LUCK! :-)

Additional tips for 2018:
The radius of the apple baskets is much more forgiving nowadays.
You can ride straight through the apple baskets - no more jumping.

Co-ordinates for apple baskets and NPCs:

46.40 - apple basket #1, in the tent at Brewfest.
47.45 - apple basket #2, at the crossroads, near the bridge.
47.49 - apple basket #3, paralell to gnomes' workshop across the road.
46.53 - apple basket #4, in Kharanos.

46.40 - Neill Ramstein, the questgiver.
45.52 - Flynn Firebrew, provides Portable Brewfest Keg.
46.40 - Pol Amberstill, provides Brewfest Prize Token in exchange for Portable Brewfest Keg.

very nice LotR reference :)
'There and back again' is the title of the book Bilbo starts and Frodo continues, then gives to Samwise at the end of the story.

fun quest as well.

this quest is the opener for the daily ram racing quests, it being repeatable forever is a bug that has been hotfixed and is now repeatable on a12 hours delay (not daily quest).

The [item=33306] is removed from the game since Brewfest 2013 ( 2013-09-20 to 2013-10-06 )
Now the Extra Action Button 1 is used, known from some bossfights (below center of screen).

Tipp: Use mouse to steer, and use a button to control speed.

With Game Menu - Key bindings - Extra Action Button 1 you can bind a button ,
or put a macro in the actionbar of your choice:
/click ExtraActionButton1

But remove other keybindings around that button, which can dismount you.
Instant casts will dismount you, as well as item use macros, ...
