Do you think that 1lb victory will be too much? Last time I used 1/2 lb.

Thanks

looks tasty

sounds awesome. i made a brown ale just like that but with extract and some munich. super tasty.

Should be fine. Although you don't see Munich or Victory in modern Northern or Southern Brown ales, they are common in older Browns.
