Considered the favorite constitutional among [[mercenaries]], '''Timbiqui Dark''' is arguably the most well known prestige beer in the [[Inner Sphere]] and beyond. <ref name=HHS-139>''Handbook: House Steiner'', p. 139 "Economics - Major Industries - Timbiqui Spirits"</ref> <ref name=MW3ed-178>''MechWarrior, Third Edition'', p. 178 "Society and Culture - Daily Life - Food and Drink"</ref> <ref name=CBTRPG-178>''Classic BattleTech RPG'', p. 178 "Society and Culture - Daily Life - Food and Drink"</ref> ==Background== Apparently produced as far back as the [[Star League era]]<ref name=ER2750-117>''Era Report: 2750'', p. 117 "Era Tracks - Mission Ambush"</ref> by the Raasch Brewhaus on Timbiqui<ref name=FMFS-68>''Field Manual: Federated Suns'', p. 68 "AFFC Rosters - Crucis Lancers - 2nd Crucis Lancers RCT: Kestrel Lancers"</ref> for [[Timbiqui Spirits]], Timbiqui Dark is wildly popular prestige beer among mercenary troops across the Inner Sphere<ref name=HHS-139/>, the cadets of famed [[Nagelring]] on [[Tharkad]],<ref name=BoKO-epub-904>''Blood of Kerensky Omnibus - Epub'', p. 904 "Lost Destiny - Chapter Twenty-Seven"</ref> and famous sports bars like [[Thor's Shieldhall]] on the Game World of [[Solaris VII]].<ref name=WEG-C5>''Warrior: En Garde'' "Chapter 5"</ref> Not merely popular in the [[Lyran Commonwealth]], Timbiqui Dark is a much desired import beer across the Inner Sphere, including the [[Federated Suns]]<ref name=WC-C23>''Warrior: Coupé'', "Chapter Twenty-Three"</ref>, [[Capellan Confederation]],<ref name=ToA-c7>''Threads of Ambition'' "Chapter Seven"</ref> [[Republic of the Sphere]],<ref name=TaW-C2>''By Temptations and By War'', "Chapter 2 - The Campus Cabals"</ref> and even far-flung [[Periphery]] states<ref name=HMPS-11>''Handbook: Major Periphery States'', p. 11 "Introduction"</ref> such as the [[Magistracy of Canopus]].<ref name=HMPS-90>''Handbook: Major Periphery States'', p. 90 "Magistracy of Canopus - Economy"</ref> With Timbiqui's position along the Lyran-[[Free Worlds League]] border, whenever the planet has been raided or traded hands such as briefly during the [[Fourth Succession War]], most parties avoid where possible damaging the brewery and its famous beer.<ref name=TROSW-84>''Technical Readout: Succession Wars'', p. 84 "Medium 'Mechs - GLH-1D ''Galahad''"</ref> The Timbiqui Dark even has a cult following among the warriors of the [[Clans]], prompting [[Clan Diamond Shark]] to make a generous offer for an exclusive license to import the beverage into Clan space. <ref name=MW3ed-178/> <ref name=CBTRPG-178/> Most notably the return of [[Natasha Kerensky]] and the capture and adoption of Inner Sphere warriors such as [[Phelan Kell]] and [[Ragnar Magnusson]] would bring the beer to the attention of [[ilKhan]] [[Ulric Kerensky]] himself on 17 April [[3052]] on Lothan, the ilKhan liking the taste so much he casually mentioned his intent to conquer the world of Timbiqui to secure it. <ref name=HHS-139/> <ref name=BoKO-epub-904/> While how this information reached Timbiqui Spirits is unknown, modern advertising for Timbiqui Dark has frequently referenced the Clans and specifically ilKhan Kerensky's fondness for the beer in a continuing series of ads that proclaim it to be the "Brew of the ilKhan".<ref name=HHS-139/> Written advertising in [[MechWarrior Weekly]] related how the [[Dirty Pair]] mercenary unit were apparently able to trade 6,000 crates of the beer to the [[Delta Galaxy (Clan Wolf)|Wolves Delta Galaxy]] commander [[Conal Ward]] for their freedom on [[Shaula]] in [[3051]],<ref name=MH3055-111>''Mercenary's Handbook 3055'', p. 111 "Contracts - Breach of Contract - Surrender - Price of Freedom"</ref> while an extremely popular series of [[holovid]] advertisements were filmed with the assistance of then Timbiqui-based [[2nd Crucis Lancers]] [[RCT]]. Though technically against the regulations of the [[Armed Forces of the Federated Suns]] and [[Lyran Alliance Armed Forces]], with the [[Federated Suns]] unit so neglected following Lyran Succession that it barely received enough supplies to remain operational, [[Hauptmann General]] [[Anne Sung]] signed a sponsorship deal, painting up a [[lance]] of the Second's captured Clan [[BattleMech]] to resemble Ulric Kerensky's [[Golden Keshik (Clan Wolf)|Golden Keshik]] for filming purposes.<ref name=FMFS-68/> {{ApocryphalContentStart}} The ''BattleTech'' video game describes Timbiqui Dark as being brewed with a chocolate malt, producing a medium-bodied beer with low bitterness and a pleasant caramel aroma. {{ApocryphalContentEnd}} ==References== <references/> ==Bibliography== * ''[[BattleTech (Video Game)|BattleTech]]'' (Video Game) * ''[[By Temptations and By War]]'' * ''[[Classic BattleTech RPG]]'' * ''[[Era Report: 2750]]'' * ''[[Field Manual: Federated Suns]]'' * ''[[Handbook: House Steiner]]'' * ''[[Handbook: Major Periphery States]]'' * ''[[Lost Destiny]]'' * ''[[MechWarrior, Third Edition]]'' * ''[[Threads of Ambition]]'' * ''[[Warrior: Coupé]]'' * ''[[Warrior: En Garde]]'' [[Category:Foods and Beverages]]
