- PUB QUIZ—Wednesdays @ 7:00pm
We had a competitive night at Brouwerij West this week. Lots of teams joined the fight, but Here for the Beer stole first place, 99 Problems but the Beer Ain't One took second, and The Rural Juror was able to snag third. The game was dramatic with teams constantly changing places. In one of the most impressive feats, The Rural Juror rose from tenth place in the first several rounds to third place by the end. Their saving grace happened in round 5 when they were the only team to successfully double or nothing. The tensions may have been high, but that didn't stop several teams from having a great sense of humor, both in their team names and inventive answers. I am glad to be the new Quizmaster for Brouwerij West and I look forward to witnessing next week's trivia showdown!

What can I say about my final Brouwerij Wednesday? (Other than that I wish I'd come up with that wordplay sooner.) Once you get down to it, a game is a game -- and isn't that why we were all there in the first place?
In the end of the end, it was The Test Tickles who escaped earth's atmosphere with a scorching 94 total points! Sure, they scored a Round 2 double, but they followed it up with 20-point doubles in Rounds 5, 6 and 7. Second then went to Counter Intelligence with 62 points! They scored that Round 6 double as well, as well as a near-perfect Round 5. In third came Brewsual Suspects at 60 points, scoring a perfect Round 7, a near-perfect Round 6, and a sucessfully doubled 20-point Round 5. Well done, all teams!
Above, you'll find pictures of many dear teams, as well as several who requested my presence in the snapshot. My heart is absolutely brimming with gratitude and affection to all you faithful, funny, and kind trivians. Treat your next host with equal kindness and I'll be warmed by the knowledge that Brouwerij West remains the absolute best place to play. (And who knows? Perhaps I'll drop by for a visit on Wednesdays Yet To Come.)
I love you!

A tie for first marked the end of a competitive game this week at Brouwerij West! Several teams duked it out and wound up close to placing, but only three could go home with a prize!
In the end, it was Counter Intelligence who went home with the biggest win after our 58-point tiebreaker question! When trying to guess how many steps led up inside the Eiffel Tower, one team member was able to use real-world experience to get darn close. They narrowly beat Brewsual Suspects, whose nearly identical scores included a 20-point Round 6 double. Third went to newcomers 99 Problems but a Beer ain't 1 at 52 points! They scored that Round 6 double as well, bringing them right into prize territory. Well done, all teams!
