If beer makes you smarter (one can hope), then Tuesday night trivia at The Brass Tap in Marina should be a breeze. But you can only find out if their 60 taps can help by taking part. The questions are in several categories. Spoiler alert, they can be challenging; turns out beer is not a substitute for retained knowledge. But you can win Brass Tap gift cards, which is a good thing. This week’s trivia night takes place Jan. 14 from 5-7pm. 99 General Stilwell Drive, Marina. 383-7404,
