GOLD AND BRONZE MEDALS IN MARTIGNY

On Saturday 8 April, at Salon de la Bière in Martigny, we won gold in the stout category and bronze in the amber category.
Our coffee stout – L’autre monde – is full-bodied and has intense but balanced flavours and robust bitterness.
Our American-style amber – L’êlektron libre – has a complex mix of malts, but is relatively light and can be enjoyed at any time of the year.
TWICE A WINNER

We won two best in category prizes in the ‘2ème Concours de la bière artisanale neuchâteloise’ (2nd Neuchatel Craft Beer Competition): for our IPA (Le 7ème ciel) and our apricot kettle sour (La culottée)!

CELESTIAL STORY


After a first inglorious attempt at the age of 14 at making alcohol by fermenting grapes in a plastic container under his bed in his hometown of Sveg, Sweden, Peter ended up studying IT. He moved to Neuchâtel in 1992 to work for an industrial design software multinational. During his business trips to California, Peter discovered Marin Brewing Company and Anchor Brewing, Sierra Nevada and Lagunitas beers – and became a keen craft beer enthusiast. He started brewing as a hobby, and as his taste for craft beer grew, his taste for endless business meetings diminished. In 2017 he decided to open his own independent craft brewery. Today he is in his element.
Marianne’s great-great-great-great-grandmother, a 44-year-old widow, ran away with the 26-year-old Swedish gardener who worked on her family farm, provoking a massive scandal at the time. Unfortunately, Marianne’s ancestor died before Jacob Letterstedt, the man who became her second husband, made a success of his project: the Mariendahl Brewery in Cape Town. It would later become one of the founding institutions of South African Breweries. Marianne, one of the founders Celestial, hopes to have her revenge on history for her forbear’s sake. Today, as co-founder, she brews with Peter, imagines beer names and invents Celestial iconography.
CELESTIAL LOCATION

Brasserie Celestial is located on the shore of lake Neuchâtel, near the city of Neuchâtel, about 200 metres from La Tène Beach.
