The guild has been resurrected with many talented brewers. They have changed their name to the La Lush League ( for they are all lushes). The League have been given a commission to produce a large quantity of wines, meads and ales for Ravensley. They will soon have available to them a beautiful Strawberry-Plum wine. A mixed wine called "Wars Spoils", made from all the left over fruit from the viking games. Also a large quantity of Mead is being produced, which will be divided for many mead blends and flavors. This is not to mention all the brewers own collections.
