Once a year, Brasserie Cantillon orchestrates a worldwide event featuring a beer made specifically for a few select accounts around the globe for a simultaneous toast of this fleeting beer. This magical fun day is known as Zwanze, a word that refers to a sarcastic style of humor, often noted in the specialty beer’s playful nature and ingredients.

We will be opening doors at 10:00AM with 2 Cantillon beers on tap when we open. We will be tapping 2 more at 11:00AM and an additional Cantillon beer on draft every hour on the hour leading up to the world wide toast of Zwanze 2026 Artémis La Rouge at 3:00PM. However, this year is unique: we will tap the second Zwanze beer, Artémis La Blanche, at 3:30PM!
Artémis La Blanche is an elixir made from gentian, coriander, rhubarb root, juniper, sage, angelica, wormwood, and many other herbs, blended with Lambic.
Artémis La Rouge is an elixir made from verbena, marjoram, rose, apple, curry plant, wormwood, and many other herbs, blended with Kriek.
Both beers have an alcohol content of 7%.
We would like to thank the entire Van Roy/Cantillon family, as well as the team at Lime Ventures, for inviting us to share this day with our guests. Of course, we also couldn’t have done without our many customers over the last 30+ years who have embraced craft beer with us! Thank You!
