Description
A passion that defies time! Let’s go back through history: it was in 1740, in Haubourdin, that my ancestor Célestin Cordonnier created his brewery. A passion that defies time! Let’s go back through history: it was in 1740, in Haubourdin, that my ancestor Célestin Cordonnier created his brewery.
Eight generations of brewers follow one another faithfully, each bringing their own touch of know-how and excellence. After 60 years of interruption, I take up the family torch with pride, and pay tribute to my grandfather and his intuition: the CÉLESTIN micro-brewery was born in 2014 in Old Lille.
Linked to almost 300 years of family brewing history, the Célestin brewery is known to be one of the region’s first micro-breweries to set up in an urban setting. It is in the heart of Old Lille that Amaury, descendant of a family of brewers, sets up his micro-brewery and a beer cellar.
Due to the success of the brewery, a second production site was opened in 2017 just outside the center of Lille.

Bière dégustée en fût de cognac et d’Armagnac. Robe noire profonde, mousse fine et fugace. Nez intense, mêlant cacao, vanille, boisé noble et une pointe d’alcool. En bouche, texture onctueuse, chaleur maîtrisée, arômes puissants de malt torréfié, de fruits secs et d’eau-de-vie. L’influence du fût se fait clairement sentir : notes de chêne, de raisin, de rancio délicat. Finale longue, chaleureuse et complexe. Une belle réussite, dense et raffinée.

330ml bottle from Gamm Vert, Hazebrouck. Pours a cloudy gold, good white head. Aroma of heavy yeast, creamy yoghurt. Flavour profile is quite richly sweet, prominent yeasty expressions, some mild honey, pale malt, spicy moments. Not bad.

Bière en boîte métallique cl. Joli aspect, robe blonde assez trouble, nez agréable, bouge parfumée et exotique sur les houblon frais, très sympa.

Bière reçue en cadeau à Noël. Son profil aromatique se distingue par des saveurs de fruits exotiques particulièrement bien équilibrées et intégrées. Les nuances prononcées de ces fruits confèrent une richesse gustative appréciable. Bière agréable et harmonieuse.

Bière reçue à Noël. Profil gustatif marqué par une belle intensité et une intégration maîtrisée de l'alcool. Ce qui m'a particulièrement plu, c'est le mariage réussi entre le côté exotique et les nuances d'agrumes, notamment cette agréable touche d'écorce de pamplemousse parfaitement perceptible. Caractère bien affirmé et bière très réussie !
