Harbor Sentry Inn. The Harbor Sentry is Sarshel's most luxurious and expensive inn. Originally built by the wizardess Queen Ilmara as a royal Summer Palace, it was sold later by King Lashilmbrar to the noble Sarsheli family Launrinbrar and remained in its possession and in operation – even through Impiltur's dark days – until the 1365 DR, when the last heirless scion of the Launrinbrars, Rilinbryr (see also the entry on the Shrine to Lathander, Map No. 35), retired and sold the inn to Silimbrar, non-inheriting son of the noble family Nauburnyr from Dilpur. The Harbor Sentry always has a wide variety of seafood dishes including exotic fare at prices ranging from 1 to 20 gold talers and local lamb dishes at 3 to 22 gold talers. Dishes with beef, veal, boar or fowl also are available often, at prices ranging from 4 to 30 gold talers. Silimbrar's beer is the most expensive in Sarshel, imported from the monastery in Westfields. All beer is served in tin tankards that hold a pint/half liter. The light colored Monk’s Tankard, strong in bitter hops costs 1 silver shiner. Brother Armin’s White, the unusual bottom fermented beer brewed with wheat malt instead of barley malt, costs a silver shiner and 6 copper bites. In the cold months, Silimbrar also serves the strong, sweet, dark, malt-rich double bock beer called Chaunteator at 2 silver shiners. He has a selection of the best wines from Uthmerg at 2 to 6 gold talers per quart/liter bottle and premium imported wine from Ithmong at 8 to 100 gold talers per bottle (only full bottles are sold), Eastreeds whisky at 2 gold talers per shot/0.1 liter and the full selection of local fruit schnapps at 1 gold taler per shot/0.1 liter.
