The Memphis Flyer’s web-exclusive bonus content Beer Bracket Unfiltered continues on. The latest installment of Unfiltered has the Flyer folks interviewing the brewers at Wiseacre. The interview starts off discussing Wiseacre’s interesting beer names.

The Blue Monkey. The Silly Goose. The Blind Bear.
