Morimoto and Rogue Brewery are joining forces from August 25–31 to present a culinary and brew event like no other. This weeklong event, which includes Labor Day weekend, will feature a special four-course menu each night and an extra special six-course meal on Wednesday, August 27.
See how Morimoto dishes and Rogue Brewery beers complement each other perfectly. Some of the pairings you will enjoy include the coconut cured tuna paired with the Rogue Hazelnut Signature Ale, the chef’s selection of sushi alongside the Rogue Soba Ale and a bittersweet chocolate torte paired with the Rogue Voodoo Donut Pretzel, Raspberry and Chocolate Ale.
Four-Course Menu from August 25–31 ($100)
