There has been a proliferation of food and beverage tasting events at Faire in recent years, made popular by traditional gatherings every year of the Brewers' Guild, and the World Tour of Scotland. While these are techincally private events, and therefore the Stewards do not need to concern themselves with their organisation, there are a few points to pay attention to in working with those who are organising them.

=== Responsible Hosting ===
It is important that the people running these events understand the importance of being responsible hosts where alcohol is concerned. Alcohol should not be served to minors, nor should it be served to gentles who are intoxicated.

Note also: attendance at such events must not require specific payment of any kind from attendees. Requiring payment to consume alcohol would violate mundane law regards requirements for a mundane liquor license. This extends to voucher schemes and similar.

=== Events and Scheduling ===
Traditional events that are usually scheduled:

==== Setup Sunday Wine Tasting ====
This is usually held in the Glade (Cultus Faunus encampment) on the Sunday afternoon of setup weekend, before the Soup Kitchen.

==== Brewers' Guild ====
The Guild holds an annual meeting at Faire. The timing is variable (usually a late afternoon), but their meeting and tasting requires a two hour timeslot. The Half-Circle theatre is their preferred site. The local contact for the Guild is currently THL Dauid de Cochrane.

==== The World Tour of Scotland ====
Traditionally a whiskey/spirits tasting held on an evening of Faire. A popular event which often takes up the entire evening, and often occupies the Marquee. The local contact for this event is currently Ld Tim.
