Brewfest is now live until October 6th on Mists of Pandaria servers outside of Orgrimmar and Ironforge. Players will find quests, vendors, and endless kegs of brew at these special Brewfest camps, with numerous special festival activities and music to enjoy!
Players can partake in the limited-time event by using the Looking for Group (Dungeon Finder) tool and choosing the World Event for Coren Direbrew. Players must be level 89 or 90 to queue for this event, but you can run it as many times as you want!
Keep in mind that some of the items available in the official preview aren’t available in Classic.
Make Sure to Don Your Kilts, Brewfest is Here!
Eat delicious food, drink bountiful beverages, and ride rams around barrels of apples! Brewfest has arrived, and you can enjoy all that and more!
When: September 23–October 9
Where: Dornogal, Valdrakken, Ironforge, and Orgrimmar
Currency: Brewfest Prize Tokens—used to purchase most items at the Brewfest vendor.
“First celebrated by the dwarves, Brewfest now holds appeal among all the races of Azeroth!”
New This Year
Brewfest comes to The War Within!
Strike up a conversation with the Holiday Enthusiast in Dornogal to begin the brewfestivities. In addition to enjoying the usual fun in Ironforge and Orgimmar, new Brewfest quests can be completed throughout Khaz Algar, and the new Brewfest Banquet Outdoor Scenario will keep you hopping.
What’s Brewfest without some stout rewards?
Fresh items are available on the holiday vendor, but you can take the best of the fest with you wherever you go by bringing down Coren Direbrew—once daily, you’ll have a chance to get the Brewfest Barrel Bomber mount.
You’ll also have an opportunity to get the Brewer’s garb, including kilts, as a reward for completing the Brewfest Banquet. Customize yourself for adventure with other festive kilt colors available from the holiday vendor, or show off your Brewfest charm with a Brewer’s Balloon.

What Does Brewest Add to Mists of Pandaria?
The above Blizzard post contains information for both Modern WoW and MoP, showing off several items. We will list below what players can obtain specifically in Mists of Pandaria’s version of Brewfest.
Trinkets
Normally, Brewfest is a great way to get some gear for fresh characters, with Coren Direbrew dropping several epic trinkets that each fit a role. Players may find, however, that this time around, with Celestial Dungeons being present, these trinkets fall somewhat behind the curve. They remain a great option for fresh characters, and can easily be farmed by running Coren Direbrew in the Dungeon Finder repeatedly.
Bitterest Balebrew Charm
Bubbliest Brightbrew Charm
Brawler’s Statue
Coren’s Cold Chromium Coaster
Mithril Wristwatch
Thousand-Year Pickled Egg
Mounts
While Coren Direbrew can be run as many times as you wish, you can only obtain a single 
Keg-Shaped Treasure Chest each day, which has a small chance to contain a mount.
Weapons
As mentioned above, players can only get one Keg-Shaped Treasure Chest each day, which also has a small chance to contain a weapon.
Achievements
Be sure to grab these limited-time achievements, as they are only available during Brewfest!
- Drunken Stupor: Fall 65 yards without dying while completely smashed during the Brewfest Holiday.
Down with the Dark Iron: Defend the Brewfest camp from the Dark Iron attack and complete the quest, “This one Time, When I was Drunk…”
