Rare find in the Keg-Shaped Treasure Chest, the once-a-day reward for killing Coren Direbrew in the Grim Guzzler, the tavern in Blackrock Depths, while Brewfest is on. He is fought through the Group Finder's holiday queue, which forms the party and sets it down in the tavern.
Chance 1.09% once a day, so about 92 tries on average — Wowhead: 2,440 mounts in 224,420 opened Keg-Shaped Treasure Chests (item 117393, read 2026-10-10). The count pools the years since this epic chest came in (the wiki dates the change to patch 6.0.2, 2014). Blizzard has since raised the chance for an account's first attempt of the day and made every later attempt that day ineligible, with the chance growing after each failed day (its wording, quoted on the wiki's chest page as the rule from 2024 on; no figures published), while those later chests still count as opened here, so the first chest of a day should do better than this. The older rare-quality chest (item 54535) was not read for this mount

Notes and sources
No place is given: the queue is joined from anywhere and carries the party straight to the Grim Guzzler, as found for the Great Brewfest Kodo. For reference, the game's table has the dungeon's entrance at Searing Gorge 27.6, 72.4. The party is made up by the queue.
Brewfest 2026 has ended, so the next chance is in September 2027. The wiki gives the festival as 20 September to 6 October; a 2025 Wowhead comment has that year's festival ending on 9 October, so the calendar in the game is the thing to go by.
Who gets a chance: Blizzard's wording on the wiki is 'Only the first attempt on a single Battle.net account will be eligible to receive the item drop', with 'significantly' increased rates for that attempt. Wowhead comments on the chest still argue about it:
- one of 2026 asks for proof that only the first chest of a day per account can hold a mount, after two or three years of trying on some 20 characters
- one of 2025 describes logging in several game accounts under one Battle.net account for more first chests
- one of 2025 reports 208 runs in one festival without the Brewfest Bomber or the proto-drake armor
On level: the wiki says level 10 can queue, but only characters in the current expansion's level range get the chest, the rest a Keg-Shaped Treasure Box without mounts. A 2026 comment reports the Brewfest Bomber from the chest on a level 20 character. The mount asks for level 17 and Apprentice Riding and binds when picked up (wiki).
The same chest can hold:
- the Great Brewfest Kodo (2,769 of the same 224,420)
- the Brewfest Bomber (1,018; added in 2025)
- Renewed Proto-Drake: Brewfest Armor (2,299)
A 2025 comment had this ram and the armor in one chest. The time on site is an estimate for the queue and the fight, the same as for the Great Brewfest Kodo. No guide is linked: it takes the queue and one boss.
Confidence in this entry: medium. Looked up in 2026.
