The Tuesday Morning Post: Bejeweled at the Brewfest edition
Good Tuesday morning, Everyone! It's a long bit of downtime today, 3 AM to 11 AM PDT. That means that you'll have plenty of non-WoW time ahead of you. As usual, I'm going to suggest that you devote some of that to catch up on this week's news from around WoW. Here's a few suggestions:

Brewfest is ongoing. Be sure to read the latest news about Coren Direbrew's loot (and see the overview of his trinkets here as well), as well as our guides to getting the most of out of Brewfest and getting a head start on the new Brewmaster achievement title, as well our tips for tangling with Coren.
