Shortly after making your escape from Helgen, you will find that someone has paid a courier to deliver advertisements to Skyrim's inhabitants. Your adventures will introduce to you a man who hap-hazardously operates his brewery, and his trusty assistant who is at his wits end with his job.

Dovah Brewery has the following features after completing the main quest-line:
1. Brewing equipment capable of making over 100 varieties of ale stemming from three base varieties. For instance, you can make a base Pale Ale, then add honey to the boil to produce "Dovah Honey Pale" that will restore stamina and improve your block ability for a while. You will have to experiment with alchemical ingredients and raw food ingredients to discover more on your own. Be careful though, you might waste two weeks worth of brewing on a skunked batch of beer.
2. A courtyard with a hops trellis and barley bundles ripe for the picking. You will also find soil capable of growing hops and barley, respectively. The original hops vines and barley bundles will respawn during regular cell respawn intervals, but the soil will be ready to harvest on the same time intervals as Heartfire planter soils. (Which I believe is three days)
3. In addition to the brewing equipment, the basement also houses the following: an Arcane Enchanter, Smelter, Tanning Rack, Blacksmith Anvil, Workbench, Grinding Wheel, Wood Chopping Block, and plenty of storage for all of your crafting needs.
4. The main floor has furnishings for an Inn complete with rooms and tables for all of your revelers. (There will be a quest-line later that introduces these features to Dovah Brewery)
5. The top floor is reserved for the owner of Dovah Brewery, you! The top floor contains bedroom furnishings that would rival even the wealthiest of nobles' bedrooms. This floor also contains an armory complete with weapon racks, weapon plaques, and mannequins. Additionally, this armory contains planter boxes (four of which are capable of growing Nirnroot), an alchemy table, a satchel, and a potion cabinet for your alchemical needs.

So, download Dovah Brewery and experience what it is like to make the greatest brew in all of Skyrim!

Author's Note: This is my first mod, well, the first mod I've completed to a useable extent anyhow. This mod has been cleaned of any dirty edits using TES5Edit. The reason I mention this, is, gathering all of the files for packaging into my .bsa has been a chore and as far as my testing in concerned, I got every file I needed included. I am keeping this in a Beta stage as I will be fixing any reported bugs, glitches, or whatever else I see fit to make Dovah Brewery a great brewing experience.

In regard to the brewing process, I created the process to come as close as possible to making real beer! I have been a home brewer for well over ten years and it has been the single-most rewarding hobby I have every gotten into. I created Dovah Brewery to mimic this process as close as possible without it being over-the-top in regard to specific processes and techniques.

Known Issues:
1. The main water supply valve to the windmill pump can take up to 10 seconds to actually animate and activate the water supply valve script. Simply activate it, and wait 10 seconds or so it will do what it is suppose to do.
2. There is some clipping with a few pieces of pipe for the brewing equipment. Not game breaking, but it has been noted.

Required DLC/Mods:
1. Hearthfires

***********UPDATE INFORMATION****************
Dovah Brewery 1.1 Changelog:

1. Weapon plaques should now properly allow weapons to be returned.
2. Set the Brewery to a NoResetZone, this fixed issues with containers respawning and mannequins unequipping/removing gear.

a. Chest in hallway near wardrobe

d. Apothecary's satchel on the bookshelf

4. Fixed the alchemical properties for barley, it should now have (Restore Health, Restore Magicka, Fortify Health Regen, Fortify Magika Regen). Both barley and hops are intentionally created to produce extremely weak potion effects to discourage use in alchemy.

4. Fixed an issue that caused the courier not to show up to start the questline.
