About forty miles NW of Philadelphia, out the Main Line, the town of Downington has a good-sized (68,000 bbl last year) plant called Victory Brewing Co. As the website says, Victory is in the process of opening a second brewery about thirty miles away, with plans to hit that 100,000 barrel mark.
The younger daughter was married last weekend in an outdoor site a few miles from Downington. Dad offered to provide the beer for the wedding feast and Victory's pilsner seemed like a natural. So the groom's father and I went and fetched the better part of one of those barrels (5/6, to be exact) from the brewery to the wedding.
My one picture of the front of the retail side didn't turn out, but I did get the T-shirt and a sticker.
And the wedding was a beautiful and memorable affair. Just look at the radiant bride!
(Brewery visited 10/5/12; wedding 10/6)
