Another electric Thursday night at Keyworth Brewing Co. and the taps weren’t the only thing flowing — the answers were flying, the bonus points were swinging, and the competition was downright ruthless. Two games. Three rounds each. Random bonus questions sprinkled in to keep everyone honest. A packed brewery and a crowd that brought the energy from start to finish.
Game 1 came out firing. After Round 1, Did you know? We Don’t Know jumped ahead with 7, but they had company breathing down their necks. Round 2 saw All Downhill From Here surge with a 9-point round, tying up the race and setting the stage for a dramatic final round.
Heading into Round 3, it was anyone’s game. Both top teams delivered clutch performances with 8-point finishes, and with the bonus question added in, we had a tie at the top:
1st (Tie – 23 Points)
Did you know? We Don’t Know
All Downhill From Here
Right behind them at 22 were Stonewards and Toilet Baby, both knocking on the door all night long.
Because we had a tie in the top spot, it came down to a single tie-breaker question. One player from each team. Ten seconds. Pens down. The brewery went silent. You could hear glasses set gently on tables. When the answers were revealed, one team edged out the other by the slimmest of margins to claim bragging rights for Game 1.
Top 3 – Game 1
Did you know? We Don’t Know (Tie-breaker winner)
All Downhill From Here
Stonewards
Absolute heavyweight battle.
Game 2 flipped the script.
Round 1 saw a three-way punch thrown by Did you know? We Don’t Know, Killer Rabbits, and Stonewards, each dropping 7 points out of the gate. But Round 2 changed everything. Beer Pressure put up a 6-point round to take control, while others stumbled just enough to create separation.
Going into Round 3, the leaderboard was tight. Nic and the Cages stayed consistent across all three rounds and capitalized when it mattered most. When the math settled (and yes, there was bonus drama again), we had another tie at the top:
1st (Tie – 15 Points)
Nic and the Cages
Beer Pressure
Another tie-breaker. Another one-player showdown. Ten seconds of pure tension. This one was razor thin, but one team nailed it to secure the Game 2 crown.

The crowd was phenomenal. The brewery was packed. The energy never dipped. Every round had momentum swings, bonus question chaos, and teams clawing for every single point. That’s what Thursday nights are all about — tough competition, cold beer, and a room full of brilliant (and occasionally questionable) confidence.
If you missed it, you missed a classic. If you were there, you know.
Same time next Thursday. Two more games. More chaos. More glory.
