Saturday is Orval Day! Join us for a celebration of one of our favorite Belgian beers. Orval, brewed in the Notre Dame d'Orval Monastery, was one of the first Brett beers to be imported to the US, and it's one of the best ones ever made.

Merchant du Vin, Orval's US importer, will be donating proceeds from all Orval sold on Saturday to the National Forest Foundation. Several vintages of Orval will be available at both our locations, and we'll also be offering glass pours of one of our favorites from the Garden Path cellar: The Patient Fish the Sea, our bretty tribute to Orval.

Come celebrate with us on Saturday!

❗ Beer Release ❗ "Defying all categorization, the base for this beer was a blend of native yeast barrels of varying ages in our cellar, which was then foudre-aged, dry hopped with locally grown Cascade and Crystal hops, refermented on Pinto Noir pomace and juice, blended together with a mix of one, two, and three year spontaneously fermented beers, and naturally fermented with local blackberry honey..." Available at both @gardenpathwa and @gpfgreatnorthern we can't wait to share the flavors with you! Our official release date is February 2nd, so in just over a week you'll be able to get this incredible creation. #burlington #skagitvalley #dtbham #washington #wabeer #newbeerrelease #thetranscendentalblur #comingsoon #beerrelease #craftbeer #local
