We usually think that the U.S. is more prudish about these kinds of non-violent topics than Europe, but obviously that is not the case here. Personally, I think these quests are pretty innocuous and the near blindness you get when you get hammered in-game isn't exactly encouraging young drunkenness. But I do see how some would disagree with me.
We are researching this, but in the meantime, do you know which region(s) are causing the removal of these Brewfest quests from Europe?
Update: Wednesday morning before the restart, many people were able to do these quests. But after the restart, the quests disappeared again as intended. It looks as though those who did the quests were able to keep their tokens.

I can say this absolutely hilarious... It ridiculous to remove quests from the game for such flimsy reasons. I mean, come on, you slaughter sometimes innocent creatures for their fur, teeth, eyes, brains - you know the drill - but then it's somehow in the fringe to get drunk and see pink elephants? It was in Dumbo too, you know, and that was a children's movie. I wasn't too traumatised by that either, so I doubt players over 12 years of age will be too surprised by pink elephants and bunnies with horns and wings...
Common sense is really a rare trait these days. Ridiculous.
