Gyudd’s Distillery

skullport the port lower port nightlife tavern inventory
Lower Port in The Port

This dwarven distillery is a three-story stone building with a sagging roof. Gyudd, the old shield dwarf who runs this distillery, was once quite the name around town, but ever since the Xanathar Guild clamped down on trade with the surface, he has been unable to produce his signature brews that once made him so well-known.

Nowadays, he mostly produces Wyrmwizz, the bitter Goat's Head Ale, and occasionally Amberjack, a sherry made on the rare occasions where someone can sell him the right ingredients from the surface. He wishes he could make some of the better drinks the distillery is known for, and is happy to buy supplies to make his old brews or experiment with new ones.

Inventory

As a brewer, Gyudd sells his wares wholesale in casks of 5 gallons (19 litres). He has the following:

  • Wyrmwizz: 5 gp
  • Goat's Head ale: 10 gp
  • Amberjack: 30 gp
  • Brimfitz: 100 gp*
  • Spinner: 200 gp*
  • * = He never has more than one keg of each of these on hand, unless he has a regular supply of the rare ingredients.

Gyudd also buys various ingredients to produce particular brews:

  • Common wine at 10 silver per litre—twice the going price on the surface—to produce Amberjack.
  • Cave fisher blood at 10 gold per pint, to produce an age-old Dwarven drink called Brimfitz. One cave fisher can yield up to 10 pints of blood, but those slain in battle typically only provide 1-5 (cave fishers are detailed in Volo’s Guide to Monsters).
  • Giant spider venom at 20 gold per vial to produce Spinner, a wine much-loved by the drow. Giant spiders can yield up to 8 vials of venom, but ones slain in battle typically provide no more than 3. He cautions non-drow against drinking Spinner, as it can be quite lethal to those not innoculated.

Gyudd is a shield dwarf and master brewer know to sample his own wares a little too much—a habit some claim he developed to quiet the ghosts that haunt his dreams.
