Red Dragon Inn
Specialty Ales and Spirits
Owner: Roland Stormbrew
Nestled in a quiet corner of University City, Red Dragon Inn is a small but lively tavern that attracts a crowd of scholars, adventurers, and city folk alike. The atmosphere is warm, cozy, and unpretentious, with the smell of freshly brewed ales and spirits wafting through the air. The tavern is known for its large wooden bar that stretches across most of the main room, where patrons gather to enjoy finely crafted drinks and hearty conversations.
The space itself is intimate, with stone walls adorned with simple yet charming decorations. Wooden tables and chairs line the space, but it’s the bar that draws the most attention. Behind the bar, Roland Stormbrew—a burly man who often gives the opposite of what is ordered until the customer "earns" the right to order what they want—holds court. He is famous for his mastery of brewing ales, meads, and spirits, and often can be found experimenting with new recipes. The tavern’s small kitchen is tucked away at the back, serving only a limited but well-loved selection of hearty bar food to accompany the drinks.
There are no rooms to rent here, as Red Dragon Inn is more focused on creating an experience for its guests rather than offering lodging. However, patrons are always welcome to stay late into the evening, chatting over drinks or enjoying the soothing melodies of the small lute that is occasionally played by a local musician.
The overall ambiance of the tavern is vibrant yet relaxed, a place where anyone can unwind with a pint in hand and discuss everything from arcane theories to tales of far-off lands. Roland’s love for brewing runs deep, and his passion for creating the perfect drink makes every visit to Red Dragon Inn a special experience.
