Festivals

Welcome to the Festivals guild page!

This is the main wiki home for coordinating our efforts in passing the Principles and maybe even some test passes for the Test of Festivals. The Guild hall is in Asyut at 1050, 2354, just east of zFree.

How do I test?

Participation Data

Upcoming Festivals Weekend

Next Festival: The Osiris festival will be Saturday, May 5

Coming very soon: That familiar chart where you can list the beer you need

I would like to have a fuller list of beers we can brew for Osiris, but reaching the point where we may simply have to work with what we've got. Be prepared to:
1. Test well ahead-of time. As early as possible.
2. Look at the beer database to see if your beer can be brewed.
3. Do an individual festival, any type, and test again for your new Osiris requirement. This can be done every 16 server hours.

Additional Information for each Festival here.
