'Another Outsider passing through? Well, usually I don't cotton much to Outsiders, but in this case an Outsider is exactly who I need. Now, what I'm about to tell you cannot be repeated to anyone!
'You see, I've made a bit of a name for myself as being an expert on ales, wines, and the like. And one night, I got to boasting and said there was no need for me to take up the Inn League Challenge, as I'd already drunk every type of spirit that could be found west of the Misty Mountains. Then someone asked if I had drunk a "Blagrove's Brown" from the Bird and Baby, and...and to my horror I realized I never had!
'Can you believe it? Me, living all my life in the Shire, and I had never drunk an ale found right in Michel Delving! What's worse is I lied, aye, I lied and said I had! Now I can't show my face down there and enjoy what might be the finest ale in all the Shire! I can't live like that! Could you fetch me a bit of that ale?'
Background
You have encountered another member of the Inn League, who is seeking the last ale he needs to complete the Inn League Challenge.
Objective 1
The Bird and Baby Inn is in Michel Delving. Harigar Mudbottom is in Oatbarton.
Harigar Mudbottom told you of the horror he experienced when he realized he had never had a "Blagrove's Brown" from the Bird and Baby. Since he lied and told others that he had, he has asked you, in the strictest of confidence, to fetch him a mug of the ale so that he can truly say he has had a sip of every ale, wine, and spirit that can be found west of the Misty Mountains.
- Collect a mug of Blackgrove's Brown
- Return with the Blackgrove's Brown before time expires!
- Bring the Blackgrove's Brown to Harigar Mudbottom
- Return with the Blackgrove's Brown before time expires!
- 'Do you have it? Good! Quick now, no one is looking. Give me that mug. I'll take this back into the house and drink it there.
- 'My thanks for doing this for me. Now I can hold my head up high and truly say that I've completed the Inn League Challenge. I really drank every spirit there is to be found west of the Misty Mountains!'
