From Brasserie Cantillon:
A little over a year ago, we were in Brittany to submerge a few dozen bottles of Gueuze in the sea as a collaboration with Sylvain, an abalone farmer in Finistère. These bottles are still fermenting at a depth of 10 meters in the company of his charming creatures.
Once a month, Sylvain brings up the cages to add various types of algae for the mollusks to feed on. We tasted these same algae in tartare during our visit, and the idea came to us to try them in maceration with Lambic to create a partnership between the brewery and Sylvain's company. After several attempts, it turned out that seaweed, specifically the sea lettuce, gave the best result.
The beer is, of course, very different from the fruity, vinous, or floral tastes traditionally found in our products. This Zwanze 2024 exudes aromas of exotic fruits; it has notes of iodine with a slight salinity reminiscent of oysters. In short, a very different beer from what we are used to discovering at Cantillon - a true Zwanze!
Threads Blending Event
We’ve been interested in the historic origins of porters and stouts, being originally blended beers made up of young and aged beer. As part of our barrel ageing programme we thought it would be interesting to recreate that in a little way, so we are premiering a very limited and exclusive project called the Threads Project. We have Two Threads as a blend of our Brett Barrel Aged History Repeats, our Victorian Imperial Stout recreation, and our normal Stout. Alongside it we’ve got Three Threads, which is the same but with our Session Bitter, Nano Cask, blended in.
On Friday 19 April we will run an exclusive event at our brewery where you will get an opportunity to hear the stories of these amazing beers, taste them side by side, and try your hand at making your own blend. The following day we are hosting the Cantillon Zwanze celebration, so if you’re a historic beer enthusiast or just interested in learning more about brewing, tasting and blending, then you’ll definitely want to book tickets for both events and make a weekend of it in Bristol. There are certainly worse ways to spend your time.
