Scheduled for this Friday, Dec. 11, from 6 to 9 p.m. at the Penn Museum, XFest '09 will feature an insane lineup of Christmas/holiday beers from brewers around the world. Tix are available for $45 (or $55 at the door) � but Team Meal Ticket's got a pair burning a hole in our blog pockets, and we want to give them to you! All you have to do is send the correct answers to the three holiday movie-related trivia questions after the jump to drew.lazor@citypaper.net � first person to do so wins. Also, feel like we say this every time we do a giveaway, but people still do it so we'll say it again � DO NOT, DO NOT, DO NOT LEAVE THE ANSWERS AS A COMMENT.

Good luck!

UPDATE [2:50 p.m.]: Congrats to Meal Ticket reader Liza for winning! Answers after the jump.
