ORVAL DAY 2023!

On Saturday, March 25th, ChurchKey is proud to join the top beer bars from across the globe in celebrating Orval Day 2023.

One of the most important beers to ever come out of Belgium, Orval is an amber-hued Belgian Pale Ale that is dry-hopped, then finished with Brettanomyces. Intensely aromatic and dry, this one-of-a-kind beer is as complex as it is unique. One of only 10 officially recognized Trappist breweries across the world; all Orval beer is brewed within the walls of Notre Dame d’Orval Monastery. The alluring complexity of this iconoclastic beer has made it a world classic, one that has inspired a generation of brewers across the globe to craft bone-dry beers of mixed-fermentation.

By participating in this event, you are also contributing to a great cause. On this day, Orval will donate proceeds from each bottle sold to the National Forest Foundation, which brings people together to restore and enhance our National Forests and Grasslands.

There is no admission fee for this event. Bottles of Orval will be specially priced at $9 for this event.
