Victory Guaranteed at Bryn Mawr Film Institute Oscars Party

It's hard to believe it's our third year at Philadelphia's ultimate Oscars party, at the ever glorious Bryn Mawr Film Institute on the Main Line. This year, we're feeling especially victorious. That's because we're adding pairings with acclaimed Downingtown brewer Victory Brewing Company.

The celebration for the 84th Academy Awards is set for 7 p.m. on Sunday, Feb. 26 at Bryn Mawr Film Institute (824 W. Lancaster Ave., Bryn Mawr). The broadcast from Hollywood's Kodak Theater will be simulcast on the big screen in Bryn Mawr. Cost is $60 for Bryn Mawr Film Institute members and $70 for non-members.

We'd like to think our gourmet buffet is one of the stars of this long-running show. Check out what our script looks like with our new co-star Victory:

Chicken Provencal
(recommended pairing: Victory's Prima Pils)

Beef Bourguignon
(Victory's HopDevil Ale)

Butternut Squash Tortellini with Rosemary Oil
(Victory's HopDevil Ale)

Artichoke, Leek and Potato Gratin
(Victory's Prima Pils)

Hearts of Romaine Salad with Apple
(Victory's Golden Monkey Tripel)

When feeilng frisky I'm a big fan of Victory's Storm King Stout, and just had Prima Pils on tap at dinner at Jennifer's grandparents' house the other night. Did you know Victory also places emphasis on sustainability? That includes low-impact manufacturing, its Headwaters Grants initiative, and the use of solar power.
