The Jotun were the race of giants of norse mythology, and they indeed had mighty appetites for meat and beer!

... and then they cowered in great fear when they heard of Australia's greatest chieftain - Bob of the Hawke

When one drink just isn’t enough, you always have your Horn of Jotunheim. Its massive size holds enough mead for a warrior such as yourself--and by that, you mean the entire bottle.

You enjoy a long drink from your horn, pleased that it never seems to empty. Or at the very least, you can’t seem to remember ever drinking it to the bottom. You can’t really be sure, since there are a few key lapses in your memory from your last few drinking sessions.

While adventurers do make a mess of things, they also have great coin. You make sure to charge them double the usual rate.
