____________________________________

In a city known more for its glitz than its grit, Angel City Brewery is proud to rough things up a bit and work beneath the shiny surface. Our home in the Los Angeles Arts District is both brewery and canvas, the center of a revival for the city's artists, musicians, hustlers, and craftspeople. It's an LA that's as ambitious as it is diverse & and our beer is no exception.

Welcome to the future everybody! New year, new trivia, and y'all came ready to fight.

No one was more prepared than our champions this week, If You're Desperate and You Know it, Bomb Iran! This team came in swinging- doubling in two rounds and near perfect scores in the others. Equally astonishing was them nailing the Guess Who round within a second of the first clue- helps to have a diehard Weird Al fan on your team (especially when you have photo evidence for your concerned quizmaster).

Not to say the other teams didn't put up a challenge- Missionaries in a Hot Tub stumbled in the early rounds, but two successful successive doubles in rounds 5 and 6 bounced them back into the top 2.

And for the bronze, we had a tiebreaker showdown between a pair of rising teams- Too Early for Names and The Tirebiters. The former went big and went hard, while the latter did the King Trivia equivalent of betting $1 on The Price is Right.

Wouldn't you know it, it's a classic strategy for a reason! Congratulations Tirebiters!

To all our teams, thank you so much for coming out to play. See you all next week!
