In case you missed Monday’s NYT Mini, you can find the answers here:
Wondering what a portly-sounding beer is? Not sure what sisters might be sitters? Don’t worry, because I’m here to help you with the answers for today’s NYT Mini crossword.
The NYT Mini is a quick and dirty version of the newspaper’s larger and long-running crossword. Most days, there are between three and five clues in each direction on a five by five grid, but the puzzles are sometimes larger, especially on Saturdays.
Unlike its larger sibling, the NYT Mini crossword is free to play on the New York Times website or NYT Games app. However, you’ll need an NYT Games subscription to access previous puzzles in the archives.
To help you avoid getting stuck and having to reveal missing letters, here are the NYT Mini Crossword answers for Tuesday, November 5 (spoilers lie ahead, of course):

It took me 1:03 to complete today’s NYT Mini.
Not a great time, but a darn sight better than my very slow one from yesterday. GRACE and AUNTS eluded me at first, as did ACT UP on the Down clues. But I was able to complete the grid after getting AUNTS and filling in the remaining square.
