All atoms have a crystalline structure, even Beryllium. Ok but how do we know what is the crystal structure of an atom of Be?
In the case of Beryllium the crystalline structure is Hexagonal. There is a lot of cool facts about Beryllium that people don't know. Let me walk you through...

Uses
Its ability to absorb large amounts of heat makes it useful in spacecraft, missiles, aircraft, etc. Emeralds are beryl crystals with chromium traces giving them their green color.Sources
Found mostly in minerals like beryl [AlBe3(Si6O18)] and chrysoberyl (Al2BeO4). Pure beryllium is obtained by chemically reducing beryl mineral. Also by electrolysis of beryllium chloride.Description
Hard, brittle, steel-gray metal. Lightest rigid metal. Formerly called glucinium (Gl) for its sweet but deadly taste.Atomic Symbol

That gives credibility to your paper and it is sometimes required in higher education.
To make your life (and citation) easier just copy & paste the information below into your assignment or essay:
Luz, Gelson. "Crystal Structure of Beryllium (Be) [& Color, Uses, Discovery ..." Materials. Gelsonluz.com. dd mmmm. yyyy. <URL>
Now replace dd, mmmm and yyyy with the day, month, and year you browsed this page. Also replace URL for the actual url of this page (The < and > stay, ok?). This citation format is based on MLA.
