Brewfest 2012:

Ziggy Ziggy Ziggy Oi Oi Oi.

So I got started a little early with Brewfest.   But stopped by to talk a little bit about one of my favorite World of Warcraft Holidays.   Brewfest 2012.

Unfortunately this year this holiday is coming right after the introduction of the Mists of Pandaria expansion.  The Boss battle with Coren Direbrew is set at level 90,  with needing to be level 89 to get into the fun.   The loot table is basically the same as it has been every year (upgraded name,  upgraded statistics)

Bitterest Balebrew Charm

Bubbliest Brightbrew Charm

Thousand-Year Pickled Egg

Brawler's Statue

Coren's Cold Chromium Coaster

Mithril Wristwatch

The interesting part of this whole event gold wise is going to be the two pets.

Pint Sized Pink Pachyderm

Wolpertingers Tankard

Both can be purchased with tokens,   Both are Battle Pets and tradeable.   This will be the first time that you can trade/enchange these as caged pets.  So even after you have all of your needed tokens for the achievement you still can use the extra tokens for pet sales.

With the limited amount of players on many servers at level 89-90 I won't be surprised about long waits.  Perhaps a good opportunity to sale your 'services' as a tank or healer is possible.  Don't be in a hurry to  disband a group immediately.  Players at the start of the holiday will want to get their specific class item so they are more than willing to run the Coren Direbrew boss 2 or more times before it drops.

Wowinsider.com has an awesome write up on all the events including boss strategy.   Jump over there and take a look at what they have to say.  With new upgrades comes new demands for enchants for weapons.   Enchanters should be looking to quickly get their business cranked up (unfortunately the Direbrew items aren't DE for easy materials).  

This is always a fun holiday for me.   Hopefully everyone will have fun with it,  as well as continue their leveling and selling.  

Good Luck and Good Drinking

p.s.   Sorry about the title for yesterday's entry.   Not sure how that one made it pass the goalie.
