Brewfest was over. It was fun. It was extended. But now it's gone.
I was able to get my Brewmaster title this year and caught it on video. I also enjoyed a couple of events with the It came from the Blog guild. Because we had Achievements this year, I find that the event was more fun than previously. But now I must admit that I'm Brewfested out.
Were you able to accomplish all of your Brewfest goals? Did Coren give you the gear you wanted? Answer our poll below and then tell us your goals and challenges in the comments.

Thanks to friends and family with lots of alts, we did huge 16-20 kill mega-runs every day and I got both mounts, 2 tankards, all the trinkets and gear I wanted on three toons, a remote on my main, and the Violet Proto-Drake on my main. It was great, and we plan to do the same 5-man mega-runs for Hallows End.
Accipeter Oct 6th 2009 8:37AM
I got Brewmaster on my main, plus the brewmaiden trinket, a melee dps trinket (the Coaster), and the remote. I also got nifty brewfest hats on my main and all my dozen or so alts. I know, call me nuts, but I had a great time.
Accipeter Oct 6th 2009 9:00AM
Oh yeah, I also got the wolpertinger on all my toons, and the pink elekk on my main as well.
What can I say, I like hats and silly pets!
BillDoor Oct 6th 2009 8:41AM
Got brewmaster on my main and alt, got a remote for my main, and my alt got some trinkets. Main already had mounts from previous years.
Hopefully they'll shake things up next year, it's been the same holiday for roughly three years now.

Needs one more option:
I got my Brewmaster title and most of the drops I wanted, but the goddamn Kodo eluded me for the second year in a row.
csarcops Oct 6th 2009 8:44AM
I'm a brewmaster (as a dwarf I felt it was a requirement), got the wee pink elephant and a pony keg, and the goggles on my gnome DK. But no kodo :( Ah well, always next year.
EnhShammy Oct 6th 2009 8:47AM
Got title, my new Violet Proto-Drake, sweet first 310 mount i got. And to finish it off after 2 years of trying (I mean ever day it was on) on the last day, last turn at the boss, the kodo dropped (first time i saw it all brewfest) There were 3 rolling on it counting me, one said he was going to give it to me if he won, because i suffer enough, and me being the master of of the /roll under 10 all the time the loot gods decided that i should finally get a good roll, and i won. YAAAAAA I guess the loot gods looked at it this way they have lots of fun with me when ice crown hits lol

I got the title, but not all the gear I wanted. Managed to pick up the dress and a hat on my male undead warlock, but since I couldn't turn in the Dire Brew quest (tooltip lies! it's level 75 this year) I was some tickets short of getting slippers or boots to have ready for next year. :(
I do have 2 piece of gear waiting for me to ding 80 though. No mounts, but that doesn't bother me too much.
Trevor Oct 6th 2009 8:55AM
Got my title, got both the charms from Coren, got my Pink Ellek, got my pony keg, got the remote, and on my last run to Coren on Sunday night got my ram.
Also have a bunch of coins to transfer to tickets for next year so I can get whatever pet they offer then. Good times.

I got my Brewmaster title on my druid, warlock, death knight and shadow priest. So that was good. My druid also got his What a Long, Strange Trip achievement and his Violet Proto-Drake and 310% flight form. So, I'm very happy with the outcome of Brewfest this year. A couple of my toons got the remote. My warlock was able to snag the ram mount too. Several got some nice trinkets out of it too. Now, BRING ON THE HORSEMAN!!!
Riggy Oct 6th 2009 8:53AM
I've been after either the Ram or the Kodo for 3 years now. Nothing. It's quite frustrating!
Zuljo Oct 6th 2009 8:54AM
I hate all the world events...so yeah, brewfest fails :)
Downrate me if you want, just my opinion.
Daniel Oct 6th 2009 8:55AM
I got everything but the mount. :(
It dropped like 3 time and I always lost the roll.
Caffeine Rage Oct 6th 2009 8:56AM
Brewfest was rather boring for me this year. Last year I got the Kodo, and the year before that I bought the rams. So, the only thing I had to shoot for was the remote and finishing achievements for Long, Strange Trip.
Because I knew what the achievements were last year, I was able to set myself up this year. I bought the set of clothes, and joined Brew of the Month last year. The only things I needed to do was to kill Direbrew once, Repel the Dark Iron Dwarfs, and fall 65 yards while drunk. All of which I did on the first day.
I was later able to get the remote, and a couple of mugs to sell at a later date. A successful holiday, but rather boring.
Nagi Oct 6th 2009 8:57AM
Got the kodo from Direbrew and a pink elekk companion from my coinage, so I fared better than most years. But really? Brewfest needs new coin-giving dailies. I can put up with the one ram-riding daily that has you transporting barrels, but the riding-through-town one? Bollocks. Rubbish. An annoyance. If Brewfest had more dailies that weren't just a celebration of their clunky, barely functional vehicle systems (not just that, but one of the early prototypes of those systems, at that, considering how old the holiday is!), I would have participated for more than just one or two evenings on the actual grounds and semi-daily runs at Direbrew. I would have gotten all the achievements done and had a jolly good time, but as it is the only real way to earn a decent amount of coins is to rely on Blizzard's awful vehicle mechanics!
Vagrant Oct 6th 2009 8:57AM
Hmm, i got the title, got the coaster trinket which ws pretty nice.
Got the ram, and i got the kodo
but my mount obsessed raid leader was doing a sad puppy eyes scam on me when i won the roll on him, so i gave it away again
Kia Oct 6th 2009 8:59AM
Yep. I got my title some days ago, and before that I managed both stam trinkets for my Prot build, the coaster for Ret, and I won the only Ram drop roll I saw. Pretty successful holiday, I'd say. :D

Josin Oct 6th 2009 9:00AM
Got Brewmaster on my Warrior main, as well as a Ram mount. (Yay Pink Proto-drake!)
Sadly, 2 years have passed and my Engineer Rogue still hasn't gotten a remote.
