It’s no secret that Orval is one of our favorite Trappist Ales here at Fourth Avenue Pub. On Saturday March 20, 2021 join us and great beer bars across the country as we salute this amazing beer for a day.

On March 20th, devotees of Orval Trappist Ale – and even some folks who hadn’t tried it yet – will convene upon our bar to celebrate one of the world’s most unique beers. Orval was the first Brett beer to land on US shores, and has become the favorite beer for many star American brewers. ( “Brett” – brettanomyces – is a yeast variety that adds appetizing, sharp acidity and dryness.) Orval sells one beer, brewed to exquisite perfection within the walls of Notre Dame d’Orval Monastery in Belgium. It’s delicious when it leaves the brewery, but also evolves in the bottle for five years or more.

Each year Orval’s US importer Merchant Du Vin makes a donation to charity based on US sales of Orval on Orval Day. This year, their charitable contribution will go to regional US hunger-relief organizations: Northwest Harvest, Houston Food Bank, and more.

We’ll be offering Happy Hour Pricing on Orval All Day on the 20th of March! Share one with us!
