Nolan_ 4221 Share Posted April 18 ALEKSANDRPLATZ IV - Royal City of New Valdev - Situated in the Capital of the Kingdom of Haense, the Tipsy Tarchar is the official tavern of the Haeseni state and is run by the approved proprietor. This tavern sports three floors with a beer hall and outdoor seating on the bottom, more private tables and booths above, and at the top a range of fully furnished rooms available for rent. MENU DRINKS: BIHAR BREW - Named in honour of the ruling Royal House of Barbanov-Bihar, Bihar Brew is a more modern drink than the others on sale. This beer is derived from fermented wheat harvested just outside the very walls of New Valdev in Waltonburg, stabilised and embittered with local gruit, a combination of herbs readily found in the North. Relatively inoffensive and smooth, Bihar Brew goes down easy. - 2 mina CARRION BLACK - The principal drink in Haense with its origins dating back nearly six hundred years ago to the Kingdom of Ruska. Undeniably this dark ale-like drink is the most popular order amongst the Haeseni people. - 2 mina ESTERIAN WHISKEY - A single malt whiskey containing a smokey nut and chocolate aroma caused by the peat fires used to dry the malted barley and stored for a minimum of twelve years. It was brewed and sold extensively in Haense after the Estermont-Bihar Trade Act, seeing the House of Estermont become a vital trade partner of the Royal Family. It has been a highly sought after whiskey ever since. - 3 mina FIERY WORM VODKA - At the bottom of each and every shot and bottle is a small worm and the drink is intended to be lit on fire before being consumed. The presentation and manner of drinking this vodka is a reference to the famous story of Saint Karl’s explosive death in Athera. Burningly strong, a shot or, for the especially brave, a bottle is sure to warm the body and make for merry times. - 2 mina HONEY MEAD - Exceedingly popular amongst those of Scyfling descent due to its ancient northern origins, dated back before even the Atheran Nord Lords’ time. First created by flooding beehives, the process is far more refined now and consists of mixing harvested and fermented honey with water. Naturally sparkling and semi-sweet. - 2 mina ILYA VINTAGE - A white wine, originally brewed by the proprietor of the Old Stout Crow Pub, Tarathiel Asul’onn, in Almaris. The pale yellow coloured wine is contained in a green tinted glass bottle and sealed with a golden wax. This chardonnay has a smooth buttercream, oaky vanilla and maple sugar taste topped off with a spot of cinnamon. - 3 mina LUDVIK ANIZ - A red wine, originally brewed by the Sunlit Brewery. It is now the most common form of red wine which had for centuries eluded the Haeseni people. Thankfully the Haeseni elves, knowing more of the tropical and southern alcohols, did share their fantastic wine with the North. A balance of sour, bitter and sweet elements, excellent for any wine enthusiast or simply for anyone. - 3 mina THE KOENG’S NIPPLE - A shot of liquor paired with rich strawberry cream. Originally created by the princess-consort Franziska for her infamous Raev House club. Its name is a joke based on the centuries old tradition of the Haeseni monarch having their nipple pierced as part of their coronation. It is typically drunk as an unofficial means of wishing the King good fortune and health. - 2 mina Non-Alcoholic: GOATS MILK - Introduced during the time of the Colborn proprietors, this more sour milk stayed as the abstinent were needing a drink. In a surprise twist it turns out it is rather good at remedying a bout of indigestion. - 1 mina HOT COCOA - Coming in a wooden mug, this hot cocoa is a particularly delicious creamy drink with a mix of chocolates. Topped off with a swirl of whipped cream and a sprinkle of just a pinch of cinnamon. Perfect for those just out of the cold and looking for a bit of respite. - 2 mina - - - FOOD: BEEF STROGANOV [quarter stack of steak] - Sautéed pieces of beef with mushroom served in a mustard and smetana, a sour cream sauce. Originally created for the Ruskan royal family, it is now a rather commonplace dish everywhere. - 5 mina RAEV BORSCHT [1 beetroot soup] - An ancient recipe that has proven popular throughout the ages. Distinctive in its red colour due to the beetroots but it also contains a plethora of ingredients such as boiled beef and pork with julienned cabbage, carrots, parsnips, onions and tomatoes as well as diced potatoes to boot. - 3 mina MARIZBRUD (Marian Bread) [quarter stack of bread] - The basic form of bread in Haense. It differs from other variations for its distinct use of local honey and a pinch of vanir salt in the bake but is also served with a side portion of them too for making it more savoury or sweet to the person’s preference. - 1 mina PERPETUAL STEW [1 suspicious stew] - A pot into which whatever one can find is placed and cooked continuously. The pot is never or rarely emptied all the way, and ingredients and liquid are replenished as needed. Such foods can continue cooking for months upon months or years even. [The customer rolls and the number determines the quality of that day’s stew] - 2 mina EVENTS & TRADITIONS The Tipsy Tarchar boasts a wide variety of traditions from its previous iterations as well as newer ones that bring a liveliness and constant buzz to the atmosphere at the tavern that’s a staple of Haeseni culture for a reason. Some of our more famous events are, but not limited to: DRINKING COMPETITIONS - A long standing tradition and popular event the world over. Competitors take part in the tavern run contest for who can finish their drink the quickest in subsequent back to back rounds. The slowest participant in each round is eliminated until there are only two left. From then on the final two will each drink from the coveted PRINZEN’S ABSINTHE bottle with the winner taking it home. This bottle can only be obtained by winning an official Tipsy Tarchar drinking competition and is stamped with the year. BARE-KNUCKLE BOXING - While not strictly illegal it is certainly not high brow and often frowned upon. Here at the Tipsy Tarchar we see it for what it is - entertainment! Taking place in an undisclosed location that’s revealed when and if fights are happening, there are drinks served, betting and a monetary prize for the bare-knuckle champion. COMING OF AGE DRINKS - Though we in Haense do not have an official drinking age it is generally accepted as being in the 16-18 years old range. Coinciding with a Haeseni’s ascent into adulthood we at the Tipsy Tarchar wish to celebrate it with alcohol. When someone comes of age we offer a discount package of all our drinks so that the newly minted adult can test each and every one so they can determine where their tastes lie early.
