Here are some of the more commonly-asked brewing questions and their answers. If you have a question/answer combo that should be added to this, please reply to this post. If you have a question not answered by this post, or by the main site, please post a NEW topic with your question, so that this thread does not get cluttered
Q: How do I make (Whatever)?
A: Go to www.eqtraders.com and look it up!
Q: How do I make (Some rumored, RL, or other recipe not listed)?
A: If it's not there, and it's not on the message board (Check back a couple pages to be sure), NOBODY KNOWS! Most likely it isn't implemented yet, and may never be implemented. At the very least, nobody has discovered the recipe. Feel free to post attempts and DNC messages, but please check to be sure you're not repeating somebody.
Q: How do I skill up after 135?
A: 2xBrewed 2xStout Dwarven Ale will get you to 142. Above that all recipes to 162 take Foraged Vegetables, Ground Spawns, or Amadillo/Skunk parts. Or you can skip straight to Faydwer Shakers (188) and Minotaur Hero's Brew (248) ... or you can sift through the posts in this forum and find other newly-recommended skillup paths.
Q: What's with the Keg of Vox Tail Ale?
A: It's for the Warrior Epic quest. You can buy it and get 10 drinks out of it, but it's very expensive. It's found on a number of vendors. It is not brewed, nor is it used in brewing.
Q: I just made stacks of Veggie Oil, what are they for?
A: They are used in a Planes of Power baking recipe for dressing.
Q: Why should I Brew?
A: Heady Kiola for Tailors, Tempers, oils, and tannins for cultural/Velious smithing/tailoring, a handful of quests, many, if not all, of the alcoholic beverages you could want, stat-enhancing drinks, as well as the fun of handing somebody a Bleeding Brain or a Boot Beer and daring them to drink it. :)
Q: I've heard rumors about a portable brew barrel. Is this true?
A: No. The blackburrow keg is a quest-only combine container and cannot be used for normal brewing.
Q: I want to make skull ale. Where can I find a cyclops skull?
A: It is dropped off the undead cyclops in South Karana.
Q: I can't find <insert item> on any vendor and I've looked *everywhere*! Where in the world am I supposed to get it?
A: If you cannot find the item listed on the brewing trade supplies list (http://www.eqtraders.com/location/brewing.htm), chances are the item you are looking for is foraged. If you have any ranger, bard, druid or Iksar friends, ask them to hold some for you. You can also go here (http://www.eqtraders.com/location/foraged.htm) to find out which zones you need to be in to forage certain things.
Q: My friend gave me a brewed item with one charge of "Spin the Bottle." How do I make that?
A: Sorry, this is an item that only Magicians can summon.
Q. Where can I buy heady kiolas?
A. These are not a normal part of merchant inventory, but are player-brewed. Make friends with a local brewer if you do not wish to become a brewer yourself.
Q. Where can I buy vodka?
A. As with heady kiolas, these are a player-brewed item, not something that is normally part of merchant inventory. Note that the vodka sold in Thurgadin is Kromriff Spit Vodka, and cannot be used in recipes requiring vodka.
Q: What are Forest Barley, Preserved Hops and a Battleworn Canteen used for?
A: They are not used in brewing. They are for the Brell Serilis Disciple Quest.
Q: How do I make a temper?
A: Try the below link. (A list of where you *find* the ingredients is further down on that same page.)
