The Thousand Year Ale
“ | Bran Di, the lazy dam operator in Tai Ming, has "worked hard" for ten years, and didn't even get a reward for it! He now demands compensation in the form of a Thousand Year Ale - an ale that has been stored for a thousand years.
It sounds like an impossible request, but with the time rifts, perhaps you can make it happen... |
” |
The Thousand Year Ale is an intermediary quest required for progressing with the quest A Matter of Time. The player is tasked with obtaining a thousand year ale, which can be done by clever use of the time rifts.
Objectives

- Find a Bottle
- Return to Bran Di
Walkthrough
The Thousand Year Ale first requires finding some regular ale in Past Tai Ming. It can be found in Montbel's restaurant located in the eastern part of the zone.
There is a keg in the basement of the restaurant that can be moved around in the Past. It needs to be moved in the bottom left corner, so that falling debris in the Present doesn't destroy it. Once interacted with, a bottle needs to be retrieved from the room upstairs.
Once on the first floor, you will be ambushed by a few enemies. After defeating them, you can get the bottle and pour the drink from the keg in the Present, then return to the Past and turn in Bran Di's quest.
