[edit] Mechanics

Two teams of five are matched for a game. Each team gets skills which allow them to brawl the other team, such as punching, kicking and knocking each other over. A keg is launched into the middle of the playing area and the objective for the team is to get the keg to their 'brewer'. The aim is to get as many kegs back as they can and the team with the most wins.^[2]

When the keg is picked up you get new skills which allow you to pour ale on the ground which makes it slippery or pass the keg. The passing of the keg is ground targeted so there is some skill involved as these passes can be intercepted.^[3] Players not carrying a keg are granted swiftness.
