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®. A Beer Specialist will be on hand to give a short presentation on each beer being a sampled.

The Dogfish Head selections to be featured at Morton’s “Hoppy Hour” will include:
§ Midas Touch – a Turkish recipe for the oldest known fermented beverage in the world.
§ Raison – As complex as a fine red wine, this Belgian style Ale is brewed with beet sugars and raisins and would pair best with a Morton’s steak.
§ 90 Minute –Dubbed the “Best IPA in America” by Esquire Magazine.
§ Palo – The caramel and vanilla notes in this aged brown ale are derived from handcrafted wooden brewing vessels made of Paraguayan Palo Santo or “Holy Tree” wood.

This unique pairing is part of the ongoing Prime Events Series presented by Morton’s, which is a collection of unique and interactive tastings, seminars and dinners. Guests will have access to experiences and opportunities that can’t be found anywhere else.

About Dogfish Head
When Sam Calagione opened Dogfish Head in 1995 it was the smallest commercial brewery in America making 10 gallons of beer at a time. Today Dogfish Head is among the fastest growing breweries in the country. Dogfish Head has focused on brewing stronger, more exotic beers since the day it opened as the motto “Off-centered ales for off-centered people” attests to.

Dogfish Head has grown into a 94 person company with a restaurant/brewery/distillery at the original site in Rehoboth and a 103,000 sq foot, 97,000 bbl capacity regional brewery in Milton Delaware. In the last year alone Sam Calagione and Dogfish Head have been featured in Rolling stone, Men’s Journal, Real Simple, Playboy, the New York Times, The History Channel, The Wall St. Journal, Everyday with Rachel Ray, and The Reno 911 to name a few.
