Appearance

Brew is a tall man with long flowing black hair and beard. His hair is adjusted with two arrow-like horns pointing out, and a third arrow pointing down on his forehead. His long beard is divided into five separate parts along his square jaw. He wears a blue bandanna, a shirt with a cloth on his collar, a pirate sash with pants, and a pirate coat with epaulets. Overall, Brew has a bull-like appearance, matching that of his jolly roger.

Alternatively, however, there appears to be another figure that could be Brew, but with a slightly different design.

Furthermore, since he was willing to take up arms against Marine Headquarters, it can be concluded that Brew is both brave and bold.

History

Past

Some time prior to the current storyline, Brew became an infamous pirate in the New World and allied himself with Whitebeard.

Summit War Saga

Marineford Arc

When Portgas D. Ace was to be executed at Marineford, Brew and his crew joined forces with the Whitebeard Pirates to save him.

During the battle, the Marines suddenly decided to execute Ace ahead of schedule. Seeing as the Marines had finished their preparations, Brew, Wallem, and Baggaley stood in shock at the Marines plan to proceed with the execution ahead of time.

Afterwards, Brew fended off an attack from a Marine while Cands was behind him preparing to attack.

Later, when Jinbe was escaping with Monkey D. Luffy, telling Jinbe to jump onto his ship. However, Aokiji had frozen the water preventing any possible escape.

Post War Arc

He, along with the rest of his crew, attended Whitebeard's and Ace's funeral on an undisclosed island somewhere in the New World.

Major Battles

• Whitebeard Pirates and their allies vs. the Marines and Shichibukai

Trivia

Brew's ship.

• Brew's ship was seen amongst the other vessels of the New World pirates allied with Whitebeard. It is a massive ship with a bull figurehead. The crew's Jolly Roger is represented on the largest sail: a bull skull with the horns pointed down, a pair of crossed bones, and fire around the sides of the head.
• A character that is highly similar to Brew's concept art can be seen in both the manga and anime. In both, the character has Brew's signature hairstyle and similarly has black hair and a long black beard. However, at the same time, another character that possesses the same hairstyle appears in the manga and anime as well. This second "Brew" has neither the black hair nor the long black beard seen in the concept art, but he does have the black arrow nose that is shown in the concept art. This, however, is omitted in the anime, but clearly seen in the manga. Therefore, there are two characters that match different aspects of Brew's concept art, and as such, it is not possible to distinguish which of the two is the real "Brew". Likewise, they may both be Brew and the different designs may be a mistake.
