'Psst. Over here. Yes, you; who else would I be talking to? You are standing right in front of me, you foolish ${RACE}.

'I had an idea -- a vision, if you will. It is a dream of the Ale Association. It sounds wonderful, does it not? A true guild of ale-loving dwarves, with our finest recipes. The problem is that those woolly-toed, rascally hobbits beat us to it!

'Here's what you should do. Are you familiar with the Inn League initiation? We shall put a stop to that, and choke them at the very beginning so that they cannot grow anymore. You should steal the recipes for their precious beers and ales. Without recipes, there can be no Inn League.'

The very precious Inn League recipes can be found throughout the Shire -- in Stock outside the Golden Perch, in the Great Smials of Tuckborough, in the Brockenborings Watch Office, and in Waymeet.

The dwarf Jónar has asked you to steal the recipes of the now-famous Inn League bests: Fern Beer, Gunderic's Ale, Perry's Porter, and Rootknot Cider.

Objectives

Steal the recipe for Perry's Porter

Jónar eagerly awaits you at the inn in Thorin's Hall.

You should return with the recipes to Jónar, for he will wish to hear all that has passed during your brushes with the members of the Inn League.
