We are delighted to announce that Brasserie Artisanale de Grilly will be participating for the fourth time in the Lyon Beer Festival, which will be held on 24 and 25 April 2026 in Villeurbanne (Lyon)! 🎉🍻

Every year, this unmissable event brings together craft beer enthusiasts and breweries from all over France (and beyond) in a friendly and festive atmosphere for tastings, discovering new styles and meeting the key players in the craft beer scene.

During this 9th edition, visitors will be able to explore a wide range of craft beers, take part in paid tastings (official glass provided at the entrance), discover new beers and enjoy food trucks on site.

How does it work?

✨Tickets available in advance or on site: pass for one evening (Friday), one day (Saturday) or weekend pass.

✨At the entrance, a tasting glass is provided to enjoy the exhibitors’ beers.

✨All tastings are paid.

We look forward to seeing you in Lyon to share our latest brewing creations and celebrate the richness of craft beer together! 🍺

The entire Echappée Belle team wishes you

Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year!!

 

Here are our opening hours for the next two weeks.

Feel free to come during the brewery’s opening hours to pick up your beer to take away!

We cordially invite you all to ring in the Christmas season with a glass of mulled wine and a visit to this year’s artisans. Saint Nicolas will also be visiting us on Saturday!

Last Sunday, we experienced a very special moment at L’Echappée Belle.

Our managing partner, Fred Manson, celebrated his marriage to Soraya at Grilly Town Hall, surrounded by their loved ones.

The reception at L’Echappée Belle brought together family and friends from all over France and abroad. Moving speeches, joy, sharing… a day that will remain etched in our company’s memory.

And it was a great pleasure to see our entire team and regular customers join us in the evening to continue the celebration in a warm and friendly atmosphere.

Congratulations to the newlyweds!

As in previous years, our brewery will be present tomorrow, 12 October between 11 a.m. and 5 p.m., at the Mourex Autumn Festival.

Take advantage of this beautiful autumn day to come and visit us, as well as all the other exhibitors!

 

We are proud partners of the second edition of The Volume Music Festival in Cessy. We will be there with a selection of our beers and other drinks.
We are delighted to be part of this exciting project and wish the festival every success.

Admission is free.

A new adventure begins at l’Échappée Belle!

We are very pleased to announce that Nicolas Moreau has joined our team this month as our new Bar Manager.

He succeeds Julie, who has chosen to continue her training. We sincerely thank her for her commitment and excellent work, and we wish her every success for the future!

Aged 32 and living in Gex, Nicolas is passionate about beer brewing, gastronomy, music and, of course, the world of the bar. With his experience and enthusiasm, he fits perfectly with the spirit of l’Échappée Belle.

We welcome him warmly and wish him every success in his new role.

Come and take a tour, toast with us and meet Nicolas in person!

We are very happy to introduce our new brewer: Jean Marc Schilder!

 

Jean Marc, 51, comes from Colmar and is the father of a 17 year old daughter. He joined our team at the beginning of July and has already settled in very well. He also brings with him a wealth of experience spanning over 20 years in beer brewing 🍺.

He even ran his own brewery with BrewPub, which he successfully sold in 2023.

We are delighted to welcome him to our team and wish him all the best in his new role!

This Saturday, our brasserie had the pleasure of taking part in the Fête de la Musique in Divonne-les-Bains with our own bar. Thanks to splendid weather, an ideal location and a highly motivated team, the evening was a real success!

Our bar stayed open until 1am, and the flow of visitors never stopped. It was a real pleasure to see so many familiar faces – friends, regulars and the curious – come to share this festive moment with us.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who came to see us!
