How to use the Brew-master Deed Map
Alongside this guide to this Shire Deed, you can use this map to help you. It’s about as simple as they get!
- Circled Numbers: are the actual Inns you need to visit, see below!
- Starred Numbers: are roughly where the Inn-keepers send you. Number 3 does not have a star because the objectives are right near the Inn.
1. The Bird and Baby Inn
Michel Delving (33.4S, 75.4W)
The barman at The Bird and Baby Inn
in Michel Delving is convinced he can win the competition by reviving an ale receipe used by his great-grandfather. Only he doesn’t have the recipe (that would be too easy!). So he “asks” you to go to the Great Smials in Tuckborough and retrieve the Yellowed Recipe from the Library room.
Here is said recipe. Now you have to trog all the way back to Michel Delving…
Enjoy your first pint. Well, your first free pint anyway!
2. The Green Dragon
Bywater (31.8S, 69.6W)
requires you fetch a special barrel used by Dwarves for maturing brandy. Thankfully you don’t need to hoof it (literally) to Ered Luin! There is a contact in Overhill who can help out.If you haven’t done the Hobbiton to Overhill Quick Post route yet, be efficient and kill two Crabbain with one stone.
Where is the Dwarf-Barrel?
Once at Overhill you’ll need to head further North to Bindbole Wood. This is one of the prime places to progress the Spider Slayer Deed, by the way. At the entrance to the spider’s webs is the gleaming Dwarf Barrel. Pick it up and head back to The Green Dragon!
Note: if you haven’t done the Overhill to Bywater Quick Post route, you may as well do that now as you have to go back to Bywater anyway.
3. The Floating Log Inn
Frogmorton (31.7S, 68.1W)
4. The Golden Perch
Stock: (32.0S, 63.8W)
So you’ve trekked across the Shire and finally arrive at The Golden Perch in Stock. No one said becoming a Shire Brew-master was going to be quick!
5. The Plough and Stars
Brokenborings (27.6S,68.1W)
Once you arrive in Scary it seems the reason the gypsum wasn’t delivered is that the delivery cart was attacked by goblins. To get the gypsum you’ll have to locate the cart in goblin territory. (If you still need to Slay Many Goblins, you can remedy that here!).
You’ll need to head to the Eastern goblin camp (Scragdells) in Greenfields.
You can then head back to the Plough and Stars.
Shire Brew-master Deed Rewards
5 LOTRO Points
Title: Shire Brewmaster
30 Marks
+700 Reputation with the Mathom Society
To be confusing the deed has a hyphen between “brew” and “master”, but the title does not!
TL;DR Completing the LOTRO Shire Brew-master Deed
This deed is fairly quick to complete if you focus on it and don’t get distracted. Each Inn has a story behind why they can’t produce their best ale. And you get a free beer each time as well! You will need to complete the LOTRO Shire Brew-master Deed in order to fully complete Deeds of the Shire. So go ahead and enjoy your Middle-Earth pub crawl!
