Do we know what map(s) this will be using?
Not yet, but if I had to put money on something, I'd bet on Pub Crawl.

Umm, those are the same map. I'm betting it's gonna be Waterfront Tavern seeing that pirates are involved.

Yes, they're the same map, you can't purchase the first version however, you can the second one David linked.

Which was my bad, honestly. I'd forgotten the GameMastery stuff was out of print.

Shouldn't this be available by now? It used to say November 27, right?
Perhaps someone had to press the magic button but forgot to do so on the 27th, and now Paizo is closed for a long weekend after Thanksgiving.
Let's hope the magic button gets pressed when they come back on Monday.

Is there a reason why this was taken down and not available for purchase?
It's available for purchase now.
I'm guessing that someone pressed the magic button on Monday after the Thanksgiving weekend :)

Huh? A two-star rating? Is there a more in length review about why?
Review(s) are found on the Product Reviews tab. (You can switch tabs from the section above where the discussion comments start, below the "See Also" section.) If you don't see anything that says "Product Reviews", you're looking at a discussion-only view of the page, which doesn't allow you to navigate to the reviews.
If you're having trouble, this link should show you those tabs.

any suggestions on running this quest? Little confused when it comes to the bar brawl. Any advice would be welcomed.
The bar fight itself is basically a big hazard that abstracts the fight, instead of there being dozens of minis on the board. The first round, pick one of the dotted areas (usually the one with the most people in it, even if those are enemies), and roll the bar fight's general mayhem Strike against everyone in it. Then, with the second action, use its Port Peril Specialty wherever you think it'll cause the most chaos. The actual units in the bar fight work just like normal enemies--you can flavor these as patrons who specifically have it out for the party, rather than the bar fight going on in the background.
Since quests are much shorter than scenarios and simply don't have as much time to set up characters and backstory, my suggestion is to really lean into the tropes when running them. For instance, rather than saying "the bar fight rolls a Strike against everyone" each round, I'd suggest describing it with as many zany bar fight movie scenes as possible, such as "a halfling gets thrown sliding down the countertop, his mug Striking everyone along the way" or "A chandelier falls from the ceiling, knocking over a table and sending forks and knives showering in a cone." In that vein, I'd also suggest having the PC's discussion with Stella happen in between the checks in the skill challenge, rather than having an infodump up front as soon as everyone gets to the bar, to get that "let's talk over cards" kind of feeling.
Also, if you're worried about having too much to prepare, it's perfectly fine to just decide which of the three routes you want to run and prepare just that one ahead of time.
I hope this helps!
