Portion of Proceeds to Benefit Make-A-Wish Foundation®
Morton's The Steakhouse is offering a divinely delicious Chimay beer tasting event. Chimay is the world-renowned Belgian ale created and brewed by Cistercian Trappist monks for more than a century at the Abbey of Scourmont in Chimay, a small town in southern Belgium. Morton's guests will sample three different authentic Chimay ales accompanied by Morton's Petite Filet Mignon sandwiches, Tuna Tartare Canapes, Sliced Smoked Salmon and Morton's Legendary Hot Chocolate Cake. The ticket price of $45 per person includes tax and gratuity and Morton's will donate $5 from every ticket to the Make-A-Wish Foundation. Guests will also receive a special gift - a Chimay glass goblet - as they quench their thirst for a great cause. A Chimay representative will offer expert tips on savoring the legendary ales, which are brewed in the monastic tradition at the Abbey and made with all-natural ingredients and water from the Abbey springs.
The Chimay selections at Morton's tasting event will include:
• Chimay Premiere - First introduced and brewed by the Trappist monks at Chimay in 1862, this original-recipe ale has a warm dark red color and a soft fruity taste with a slightly bitter touch.
• Chimay Grand Reserve - This dark brown ale has relatively dry taste with a caramel touch and a complex aroma.
• Chimay Cinq Cents -This golden blonde ale offers a subtle balance between softness and fresh bitterness, with a fruity aroma.
The monks of the Abbey of Scourmont at Chimay have been brewing their legendary ale since 1862. Chimay is always brewed on site at the Abbey, which guarantees its authenticity and quality. The production and distribution of Chimay Trappist beers is performed by S.A. Bieres de Chimay. Chimay is celebrating the 25th anniversary of its introduction to the United States.
Morton's is donating a portion of the event proceeds as part of its national "30 Wishes for 30 Years" campaign to raise funds for the Make-A-Wish Foundation?. The first Morton's steakhouse opened in Chicago in 1978 and Morton's is celebrating its 30th anniversary as a fine dining leader. Through a series of special events, Morton's has raised more than $100,000 so far to help the Make-A-Wish Foundation? and its mission of granting the wishes of children with life-threatening medical conditions.
