Minus to Lack of entertainment is not going away!

I have have activated the tavern and took away all taxes and put it on x3 fast forward can skipped a few months and I still get a -24 to entertainment and a -17 to taxes?

I assume that your tavern has ale? The taxes hit should go away after a couple of months.

Don't overcrowd your region with more population / upgraded housing than your net resources can sustain. There is a population threshold depending on the difficulty setting you put on your game. Ale (Tavern) is currently the ONLY source of entertainment, if you're getting negative, you're not producing / distributing it fast enough to keep up with demands.

Greetings,

You can either import Ale (costly)
- Import the materials to "make" ale

Or use the farm to produce Barley.

- Barley: can be turned into Malt at Malthouse
- Ale: obtained from Malt at Brewery extension, consumed at Tavern

My second region is fertile and I'm brewing ale there and importing it to my first region and, suddenly, both settlements are growing at last. Lack of ale is a serious restriction to growth and it's a problem you simply must solve if you want to level up.

Personally, I would like to see cider production as an alternative, a slow (3-year?) solution admittedly but pretty reliable when you can't grow barley.

I did not have a big region at the time and their was plenty of ale in the tavern. I started a new game and everything is fine on that one. I think i may have let the tavern go so long without ale that the negative was so to high, but fast fowarding didnt seem to be dropping at all on it...my new game does go back down slowly every month
