ChurchKey has Victory Brewing Co. double vision. On Monday, April 11, they’ve got a double-barreled slate of events to welcome folks from Victory, including co-founder Bill Covaleski to Washington.

Downstairs in Birch & Barley, there will be a five-course dinner prepared by Chef Kyle Bailey with five awesome Victory beers. The B&B team promises to tuck in some unplanned tastes from both the kitchen and the brewery. In between bites and sips, Bill will lead the group through Victory Brewing’s history and the work that has gone on behind the walls of their Downingtown, Pennsylvania headquarters since 1996.
