Celeste™, formerly known by experimental names WCHB-102 and 2B, is named for heavenly beauty.

Celeste™ features bright, sweet, and clean notes of passion fruit, honeydew, and pine.

West Coast Hop Breeding’s Pat Leavy has been breeding hops for organic production in Oregon’s challenging climate for over 20 years.

Celeste™ represents a breakthrough in combining excellent agronomics and an intense contemporary aroma profile.

High yield plus high aroma intensity means Celeste™ is one of the most efficient and sustainable sources of hop aroma! 

Celeste™ has been in commercial trials since 2023 gathering steam and reputation in all styles from hazy IPA to West Coast IPA to stunning in stripped down hoppy pilsners – including in the Farm Aid collaborative beer to highlight the story of family hop farmers.

Celeste™ is available now through The Hop Guild, Charles Faram Canada and US, and direct through West Coast Hop Breeding. Purchase it now on Lupulin Exchange!
