General QuestHornbori is very pleased with the help you have given him so far, but now he tells you of a grave misfortune--the Dourhands have stolen most of the yeast and poisoned what they left! You must help bring beer back to the Dwarves.
NOTE: For questal efficiency, take The Lost Map quest at the same time as this one.
STEPS:
1) Find the stolen pouch of yeast. Hornbori says to you: "Morale around here is bad enough without running out of beer for our miners. I need you to go to the Dourhand camp north of here and get that yeast back!" The camp with the yeast is north of town, but due to mountainous obstacles, you cannot just run straight north to get there. Instead, head north from town, following the path (which breaks up once or twice). You'll soon see a lynx den on your left, this is about where you'll head northwest to get to the Thurum area. Straight ahead will be a walled Dourhand camp--avoid that for this quest. Instead, you'll want to head left to a small camp with level 28-30 Dourhand Dwarves, and plenty of pouches of yeast. After you've cleared a path to the yeast, just double-click it to pick one up (4.9s, 45.6w). Be wary of Foreman Nyrad; this is his camp and he does wander.
2) Bring pouch of yeast to Hornbori.
3) After you speak with them and select "Finish Now", you get your coin reward, XP, and you will now be able to take the next quest, Pulling Beards.
