Tales of Monkey Island Hints
Where can I find some root beer?
1 of 5: There's some near to hand, though it's not in an obvious place. Talk to Elaine for a hint if you can't find it.
2 of 5: She says it's in the miniature monkey coffin on Guybrush's ship. OH, of course, where else would you put it?
3 of 5: There are a limited number of places to look, since Guybrush won't go below decks. It's with a bunch of other wooden containers.
4 of 5: If you're getting frustrated, go right to the ship's bridge where the wheel is; you'll find the little coffin among the boxes there.
5 of 5: To open the coffin and get out the root beer, move the mouse to the right of the screen and click on the little triangle sticking out.
