2. Complete Brewmaster Achievement for Reins of the Violet Proto-Drake
Brewmaster achievement is required to get the Reigns of the Violet Proto Drake which is a 310% increase in movement speed Mount one of only a few mounts with that speed. There's only a limited time to take advantage of getting this Mount because Brewfest ends on October 6th and if you didn't get the achievement you're going to have to wait an entire year to get another chance at it, so this is your warning to get this achievement completed.
Achievement 1 - Direbrewfest
one of the achievements you need to get which is like a sub achievement is Direbrewfest, you just need to kill corn direbrew in BRD, it's really easy groups are going to be running him like crazy, basically, just kill him you get the achievement easy.
Achievement 2 - Brewfest Diet
Buy 8 Brewfest Foods: Pickled Sausage / Spiced Onion Cheese / Succulent Sausage / The Golden Link / Dried Sausage / Savory Sausage / Spicy Smoked Sausage / The Essential Brewfest Pretzel
This little bit harder but not too bad, you need to do the Brewfest diet Kieran Donahue for the alliance or Bron for The Horde sells, basically all the sausages you need just buy them all eat them all that's part of the achievement. You also need to get the spiced onion cheese which you can get from Agnes far Withers if you're Horde or Ann Summers if you're Alliance, they're cheese vendors in the same general area. Then last you need the essential Brewfest pretzel which can be obtained by speaking to any Brew Fest Barker in any beer garden and you get your free pretzel, and that's it you've just accomplished the Brewfest diet after eating all of those things.
Achievement 3 - Brew of the Month Club
Brew of the Month is probably one of the hardest ones to do, you'll need to get 200 Brewfest prize tokens by completing different Brewfest quests, there are daily quests which award Brewfest prize tokens. So after about two to three days of doing all the Brewfest quests, you should have enough prize tokens to go to the Token Redeemer which is Belbi Quikswitch if your alliance or Blix Fixwidget. Then basically you go and buy the Brew of the Month Club membership from them and starts a quest, you finish that Quest and you're in the club. Now a nice change from back in the day is that the brewmaster achievement required you to sample the 12 Beers that you get from joining The Brew of the month club as part of the brewmaster achievement. this however is no longer the case as of patch 3.3 making this achievement much easier this time around.
Achievement 4 - Down With the Dark
This is pretty simple you just need to hang around the Brewfest Camp until it's attacked by the dark iron, and then drink the complementary Brewfest Samplers and Chuck the mugs at the Dark Iron Dwarves to fight them back, do this successfully and then turn in the quest this One Time When I Was Drunk which just involves you going over to another NPC and explaining your heroic Triumph.
Achievement 5 - Does Your Wolpertinger Linger?
For this one, you can really easily just walk over to the Token Redeemer and buy a wolpertinger for 50 silver, it's really as easy as that.
Achievement 6 - Have Keg, Will Travel
This is the last achievement you need in order to complete and get the Brewmaster title and the achievement completed, you need to either obtain a Brewfest Mount which is pretty difficult the drop chances are low and on top of that you have to roll against other party members, or much easier just transform your current Mount into a Brewfest Mount using Brewfest hops which you can just purchase from token Redeemer for just 5 Brewfest prize tokens. You've successfully completed the brewmaster achievement in like a few days and you are one step closer to the Violet proto-drake.
2. Methods To Earn Max Brewfest Tokens Fast
How to earn Brewfest Prize Tokens fast? Let's start our Brewfest token Journey, complete the welcome to Brewfest Quest from Ipfelkofer Ironkeg in Dalaran and Tapper Swindlekeg in Durotar. From here we have several Quest options for free prize tokens. These are the Priority quests to complete to earn Brewfest Prize tokens fast:
Quest 1 - Chug and Chuck from Boxey Boltspinner (Alliance) or Bizzle Quicklift (Horde)
This quest gives 10 Brewfest tokens starting from boxy bolt spinner or Bizzle quick lift, you'll just need to throw your complimentary Brewfest Samplers at the knockoff Westfall robot.
Quest 2 - Now This is Ram Racing..Almost from Neill Ramstein (Alliance) or Ram Master Ray (Horde)
And don't forget about the introductory Ram training Quest now, this is Ram racing almost, all you need to do is maintain the three speeds of Trot Candor and Gallop for eight seconds each, but if you reach 100% fatigue, your ramp disappears. Once that ordeal is over with, don't forget to get your free brewfestine (optional) from Belbi Quikswitch (Alliance) or Blix Fixwidget (Horde)
Quest 3 - There and Back Again (Repeatable) from Neill Ramstein (Alliance) or Ram Master Ray (Horde)
In the pretend world where the event works, we'd all get smashed together and joyously head to the major Capital City entrances, there we'd head straight to the beer gardens where we'd zap Alex to our hearts content. Instead, let's do there and back again which is our classic keg delivery Quest starting from Neil Ramstein or Ram Master Ray. Just make sure to take a good route and run over those apple barrels or your RAM might disappear again.
Quest 4 - This One Time when I was Drunk (Repeatable)
This repeatable quest gives 10 easy tokens. Every 30 minutes, there will be an invasion of Dark Iron Dwarves at the camp, once the invasion is over just loot the wreckage on the ground and turn it into Boxey Boltspinner (Alliance) or Bizzle Quicklift (Horde)
Quest 5 - Bark! (Repeatable)
Though if you're looking for a more challenging Quest, the Bark Quest should be right up your alley. Just pick one of the two breweries to Bark for and carefully ride your ram through your cities capitol, switch to Epic mount after completing checkpoints.
A hot tip you can go ahead and disappear your Mount again and switch to Epic riding once you hit all four checkpoints. This would also be a great time to do that Wolperttinger Quest right. Just go ahead and buy the pet from the vendor for the achievement instead.
3. Kill/Farm Coren Direbrew for Both Mounts and Useful BiS for Your Specs
Coren Direbrew killed (Direbrewfest achievement)
Direbrew’s Dire Brew drop after the first Direbrew kill turns in at Ipfelkofer Ironkeg (Alliance) in Dun Morogh or Tapper Swindlekeg (Horde) for 40 free tokens
Great Brewfest Kodo obtained
Swift Brewfest Ram obtained
This is semi-optional, you don’t NEED the Brewfest mounts. You can use Hops to transform your mount instead.
Why Coren Direbrew is Good for Fresh Characters?
Benefits:
You can bring multiple alts at lower levels to gear up quickly.
The daily Insult Coren Direbrew quest requires level 65, but lower level characters can receive the gear.
All drops are useful depending on your class/spec. These are massive upgrades for any pre-BIS character.
Blizzard has decided to keep Coren as the level 73 version, so he drops the same level 70 trinkets from last year, that means this is the perfect boss for fresh characters since items like Direbrew Hops and Empty Mug of Direbrew will save you several hours of grinding. Plus the great Brew Fest Kodo and the Swift Brewfest Ram are extremely worth getting, these mounts absolutely stand out in the crowd and will have people inspecting your character for years to come. And the Direbrew's Remote is a must-have BRD teleport, especially if catacomb classic and black Wing descent end up coming out. Don't forget that you also get a 40 free Brewfest Prize Token turn-in quest for killing Coren Direbrew the first time.
