About The Famous Bar

The Famous craft cocktail lounge is located in Glendale's historic Huntley-Evans building, directly across the street from the Americana at Brand. It follows an eclectic and rich pedigree of establishments that have called this building home in the last century, most notably the early Glendale landmark, The Famous Department Store. The Famous, true to its heritage, embraces the classic art of fine craft cocktail creation, invented in the United States in 1856, using bitters, juices, syrups, and infusions, prepared in-house using fresh ingredients from local markets and growers. Cocktails served at The Famous are identical to those served nearly 100 years ago when the building was constructed.

As always happens this time of year, competition is really heating up as the big Season 9 Tournament of Champions approaches.

Because Jeopardy Won't Let Us Drink put forth their usual strong performance this week at The Famous on Brand in Glendale, taking the win with an very strong 79 points. It's no wonder these accomplished quizzers (and equally accomplished drinkers) are currently among our top-100-ranked teams with just a few weeks left to go.

Speaking of competition, Yer a Quizzard Harry put forth a great effort to give The Jeopardy crew a run for their money - or should I say gift certificate by coming in second with an impressive 71 points. As a nice bonus, The Quizzarding crew won the drinking round as well! Good job, kids!

Bad News Barristers rounded out our top three with a respectable 52, but we know you are capable of much more, Devon and Ritchie! Michael can't always be there to bail you out! But still, third place is entirely respectable!

We'll close with a word of advice from the fine folks of Yer a Quizzard, Harry: If you have a case of (hog)warts, the best way to treat 'em is to is to rub a little grindelwald on them. Of course.

See ya next week.
