In this round of the #OdessaBrewbracket, Weyerbacher goes against Yards in a contest destined to challenge fan-favorites.

Born in a livery stable in 1995, Weyerbacher has its roots in Germany from ancestors 200 years ago. Big beers are what Weyerbacher makes best, with favorites like the Merry Monks Tripel and Blithering Idiot Ale. Yet Yards is worthy competition who also draws inspiration from history (specifically olden British times). Yards has ties to British inspired ales, striving to achieve balance and subtlety through careful selection of ingredients and an unwavering commitment to artisanal production practices. Fan favorites include the Love Stout and Thomas Jefferson's Tavern Ale.
