How to throw a kickass Oscar party (Beau’s-style)

March 1, 2018

 

You and your friends have marathoned all of the films in contention for this year’s Oscars. You all have your opinions about each and every category, even Sound Mixing. (What’s the difference between Sound Editing and Sound Mixing anyway?)

You’re all die hard film buffs. But when it comes to throwing a decent Oscar party, you’re absolutely clueless. So where do you turn?

Well, you look to the blog section of your favourite craft brewery, of course. And what do you know? We’ve lined up some essentials for you.

The Red Carpet

Go to the nearest Party City on Saturday afternoon and pick up one of these inexpensive red carpets. Your guests will really appreciate the attention to detail.

Trust us, it’s an amusing touch. Roll out the red carpet.

The Popcorn

If you’re in the Ottawa area, the beloved Mayfair Theatre will deliver the best damn popcorn in the city to your door via UberEats. Get the good stuff. Your guests will appreciate it.

If you’re in the Toronto area, visit your local Kitchen Stuff Plus and pick up a Whirley Pop stovetop popcorn popper. These things rule, and they’re currently on sale. Outside of the GTA Bed Bath and Beyond also carries Whirley Pop.

Bonus: For the sweet stuff, try Montreal’s Squish Candies (they even have vegan options)!

The Beer

Pay a visit to the brewery in Vankleek Hill and stock up on our #feBREWary lineup in 600ml bottle form.

Not close enough to VKH to check us out? Also on LCBO shelves right now: Lug-Tread, Full Time I.P.A., The Tom Green Beer!, Kissmeyer: Nordic Pale Ale, Strong Patrick, Lamb’s Wool, The Beau’s Mix: Winter and Dunkel! Bonus: Halcyon Barrel House Infinity Mirror and Gravity Well.

If you can’t reach the brewery and you simply must have one of the #feBREWary beers while you watch the Oscars, just visit one of more than 370 participating #feBREWary pubs and restaurants in Ontario and Quebec. We’re sure some of them are showing the Oscars. Sleuth it up!

Cast Your Ballot

This is pretty cool: Print off a bunch of Oscar ballots and see which friend predicts the most winners!

Oscar Bingo

Last but not least, we found some Oscar bingo cards for you online. Have fun!

The 90th Academy Awards is happening Sunday, March 4, at 8:00 p.m.
