- PUB QUIZ—Wednesdays @ 7:00pm
A big ol' game after a week of being off for the holiday! Everyone missed the brewery, including your Quizmaster. There were some tough rounds, a lot of unsuccessful doubles, and a healthy dose of surprise triumph.
In the end, it was the newly renamed Here for the Beer that took the top prize! With two early doubles and consistent high points, their 60 points put them just barely ahead of Counter Intelligence. They racked up 59 total points with early doubles and a correct 10-point guess in Round 4. In third came Wannabe Vegans with 54 points, who overcame an unsuccessful double and an incorrect Round 4 answer with the only Round 6 20-point double. Well done, all teams!
Shout out to my friend and family who came down to the brewery this week! Keep an eye out for the Fire Party EP coming out sometime in 2023 probably (not).

A big group of teams this week means a tense race for first -- as usual for Brouwerij West! Successful doubles were rare this week, but double attempts were plentiful. I so enjoy and admire that spirit.
In the end, it was The Bar who came away with 68 points and the honorary top spot! As they can't win a prize, that gift card went to Teachers Out On A School Night with 56 points! They had an impressive Round 5 double, and otherwise scored respectably the rest of the game. Second was Test Tickles this week with 53 points! Their one and only double was in Round 3, and otherwise they racked up those points the old-fashioned way, too. In third came That's A Tasty Burger! with 49 points, whose biggest claim to fame this week was scoring a rare 10 points in the Guess Who? round. Well done, all teams!
There'll be no game next Wednesday July 4th, but I hope you'll take a moment to think of your dear old Quizmaster and maybe bother your friends and family with some patriotic trivia questions in my honor. Trivia bless America.

We had a guest reader this week, prospective Quizmaster Fontaine! It was fun to have her come by the brewery and check out how a game goes down. And quite a high-scorer it was this week! Several teams were neck-and-neck throughout the game, doubles flying left and right.
In the end, it was Wakanda Forever! who emerged victorious with 83 total points -- not frontrunners until the last two rounds. It's never too late, folks. Second was a tie between Double That Shit! and Test Tickles, each with 81 points. After a nail-biter tiebreaker (ha HA), Double That Shit! came out with the prize! Test Tickles received a close third. Well done, all teams!
It's a genuine joy each week to run this game with all of you at Brouwerij West. I was proud to show off how rad folks are at this spot. Thanks for sending me home smiling every Wednesday! See you next week, trivians! (I'm committing to that term. Maybe we can get it going.)
