Norm’Ale operation / the Beer of Solidarity

IT’S “NORM’ALE” TO HELP

In March 2020, we brewed 6,000 litres of Pale Ale for the Rock The Pistes Festival, which is known as one of the best open air concerts in Europe. Great music, as well as a “spring skiing” atmosphere, attract thousands of party-ready people. Unfortunately, the 2020 edition of Rock the Pistes has been cancelled. Not because of a lack of snow, or weather conditions that prohibit the fun, but because of the coronavirus that put us all in harm’s way. No one saw this one coming, and the beer was already in the fermenters. 6000 liters, which is about 2 weeks of full-time work for a small craft brewery, is a hefty investment for a local craft brewery.

What are we going to do with all this beer?”. The question started to weigh heavy on our minds… until an idea started to germinate…

Instead of being consumed by the negativity of the situation imposed upon us, we decided to use this as an opportunity to put in place an idea that we never seemed to find the time to realize. And not just any opportunity, but an opportunity to do good for others in need. We said to ourselves, “Yes, we do need help! But so do many other people around us. Why not ask our customers to help us, and in turn, we will help others.”

The “Rock the Beer” has therefore become the “Norm’Ale”: a committed Pale Ale! For each bottle sold, we donate CHF 0.20 to a non-profit association. For each new Norm’Ale batch, we will support a different association. Look at the back of your bottle to find the lot number that you are drinking. Once you’ve found the number, look down below to see which association you are helping. A little goes a long way, and since this is only the beginning, we hope that a little will become a lot. If you agree, feel free to follow the link and contribute even more! Who knows, maybe we CAN change the world one beer at a time!

This beer is a true social beer, because we think it is “norm’ale” to help others… And it seems that you do too! Thank you!

LOT N°812
Le Trésor Monthey

“We are deeply shocked and have the duty to announce that our store located at Avenue du Simplon 23, 1870 Monthey was the victim of a fire during the night of Monday 18 to Tuesday 19 July.” (Le Trésor team)

For several years, Le Trésor has been introducing 7Peaks beers to its customers and its founders have become friends of the brewery, which is why we dedicate this new Norm’Ale operation to them, hoping that this small contribution will help them resume work as soon as possible…

DONATIONS HISTORY

Lot 777 : Association Fanfare Helvétienne de Morgins

In 1931, a few Morginois decided to start a brass band in our village. They were helped by a few musicians of the now defunct band “l’Indépendante de Troistorrents”. So much courage, and commitment from these pioneers!

In 1933, during a performance in Morgins, these musicians marched with a sign marked “L’Indémontable”, what determination and humor in this name.

It was only on March 1, 1935 that L’Helvétienne was born. Where does this name come from? Perhaps because of a patriotic impulse, a memory of the Young Swiss, or simply because Mr. Gustave Donnet, owner of the Café L’Helvetia in Morgins, had lent a room for rehearsals to our fanfare. Let’s remember that in the past, our musicians used to meet at the “Fratchier” or by the lake in the home of our founding and honorary member Mr. Séraphin Mariétan.

An association was created in July 2013 under the name “Amicale de Valerette” to rebuild this small refuge damaged by the foehn storm of April 29th, 2012 with the same philosophy as the protagonists of 1989. This association also ensures the maintenance and sustainability of the site of Valerette.
