EVERQUEST ULTIMATE IRL AND IN GAME PUB CRAWL
How about we have the most epic saturday ever folks?? The ultimate pubcrawl.
Imagine drinking a real life variety of excellent brews while traversing the taverns of everquest? By journeying on foot, we can let the beer settle so we can fully enjoy a large assortment of beers and taverns, I imagine by the time we go from Akanon to Paineel/Erudin we will be completely wasted.
Each city we will visit the best bar(or 2 in some cases), and you finish a drink in real life at said bar.
The catch is to have a special brew depending on where you are at.
STARTING POINT:
Ak'anon: Optional liqour, I'll use a light beer, maybe a miller 55 LOL.
Felwithe: A light summer lager your choice.
Kelethin: Cider beer or lambic of your choice.
Kaladim: Dark Belgian/German Ale.
Freeport: An IPA preferably new England variety to match the sea city.
Neriak: Your choice of a red wine, or a fruit based beer.
Rivervale: Guiness or coffee type beer.
Highpass: I'd say an appropriate Pilsner or Lager. Halflings do like ale though so whatever suits you.
Halas: An Ale of your choice.
Qeynos: Another port city style IPA imo.
Paineel: A double bock, triple stout, or some super heavy/super dark beer to finish off this insane journey, if you arent drunk, one of these should get you up to speed, or knock you unconscious.
Erudin: A port or Stout, lower alcohol with a sweet finish for a dessert type finish.
Hardcore Finish: For those willing/able we will trek back to the mainland, and hit up Oggok and Grobb to finish with some heavy hitting shit.
If any ladies want to come up with an alternative list for a Liqour/Wine alternative that would like to crawl as well, be my guest.
We could get a Vent or use Mumble and really have a good time.
Lets do this.
If you are interested, post your name, and start gathering beers.Take a picture of all your brews once you have them ready, a label with the city the beer is for, would be awesome.
WHEN:EVENT WILL BE SATURDAY AUGUST 20TH Starting at 3PM EST(12PM PST).
WHERE: KICKS OFF AT AKANON. GET A STEAMFONT PORT OR SOME SHIT.
VOICE PROGRAM: USING P99 MUMBLE

I'm ready, are you ready? Check out that glorious selection.
A light blonde ale, Hooker, for Akanon simply because I couldnt think of anything.
A light, slightly fruity beer, Shocktop, to represent Felwithe, the fruit notes hint at the elves once wild heritage, while the more traditional lager style, shows a more civilized taste that the High Elves now posess.
Kelethin, a nice apple hard cider, a fruity beer for the elves. Sweet and easy on the palate.
Kaladim, a hearty ale, my personal favorite, for the best brewers in the world. Chimay is a 500 year recipe from the ancient Trappist Monks and a belgian ale renowned throughout the world, a salute to the dwarves.
Freeport, shipyard IPA, a port city based beer, for a port city.
Neriak, I was debating going with one of those evil or demonic themed beers, but instead went for a Dogfish head peach based malt beverage. My selection at the store was somewhat limited and I figured fuck it their elves, they like fruity stuff.
Rivervale, Guiness Draft(widget bottle). Cuz like HBB said, you can't have a pub crawl without Guiness, and when you think of the irish folk, you can kinda compare them to the happy go lucky halflings, so Guiness it is.
After swinging back through kithicor to Highpass, I'll imbibe a Bass Pale Ale. Another guiness product, this one based in england, I figure the highpass citizens are like your typical london type fellow living in a castle, have a fucking british ale.
Halas, I was going to go with sam adams wee heavy scottish ale, but I thought I'd tone it down so I don't die before I finish this event. I opted for Highland breweing companies Gaelic Ale, a well balanced scottish ale evenly mixed with hops and malt.
For Qeynos I really hit the heavy stuff with Sam Adams Imperial Double Bock. This motherfucker packs a wallop, and shows the rigid and imperial manner of a righteous city.
in Erudin we keep a strong finish with Peg Leg Heavy Seas Imperial Stout. A strong dark beer with a Sea heritage like Eruding.
Paineel we top the evening off with a delicious milk stout, not too much theme here other than the Erudite Paineels citizens propensity for sinful desires, which is what this alcoholic desert embodies.
For those who opt for the 'Crawl-Around' event, where we make a U turn and end up crawling on the floor in our rooms, I went with Sierra Nevadas Bigfoot Barley Wine Style Ale. 9.6% alcohol by volume, this is a monster beer, granted its no dogfish 120 or weyerbacher barley style, but its a beast, and it is gross and liqoury tasting, which is what you would expect from the type of clientele found in Oggok and Grobb- Strong and disgusting.
