Célestin Brewery Lille beer tasting 3 craft beers 1hr tour

Taste craft beer where it's brewed, not where it's poured

A one-hour guided brewery visit in Lille where you taste three craft beers made on-site at Célestin, a brewery operating since 1740. Your guide walks you through the brewing process and the history of the recipes, with tastings timed to the tour itself. Available in English or French.

The experience

Célestin brewery sits in Lille and has been making beer since 1740. The visit puts you inside the brewery itself (not a bar or a tasting room), so you see the tanks, the equipment and the space where the three beers you taste are actually made. Your guide shares the history of the brewery and explains the brewing method and what makes each recipe distinct. The whole thing runs about an hour.

You taste three craft beers as part of the tour, timed to the explanations so the brewing details connect to what you're drinking. The guide speaks either English or French, so you pick the language when you book. The brewery is wheelchair accessible, and public transportation stops nearby if you're coming from elsewhere in Lille.

What’s included

• Guided tour through the brewery.
• tasting of 3 craft beers.
