Zwanze 2024 - MMXXIV

Lambic - Gueuze

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!

Happy bel8ed Zwanze. Je comprends qu’elle n’a pas été très apprécié des autres. Pour ma part c’était bien, petit côté sucré/salé qui ne me déplait pas. Tcheers.

Smell: weird and a tas offsetting. Taste is herby and ends in some earthiness. Overall a fishy but decent executed experiment

Salty, briny, some tart berry, almost meaty. Lick the ocean.

Cantinollación. Maki sushi pero en cerveza. Y en vez de maguro, lúpulo. Ha mejorado en una semana. No le hace falta wasabi. Yodo contenido. Menos salina. Menos caldo de aceituna. Más equilibrada. ¿Valoramos la cerveza o el momento y sensaciones?

Zwanze 2024 ... Its okish (not bad at all), earthy, salty, pickle brine, funky. Got better as it warmed up.

Heel uitgesproken in de neus. Niet men ding. Komt hard binnen. Na wat wennen durven proeven. De zee, ziltig, zeewier. Beter qua smaak dan in de neus maar niet men favoriete zwanze

LCI probably my last favourite cantillon to date, too briney, iodine flavour a slightly medicinal. Got better as it warmed up, a week balanced beer but not my cup of tea

Zwanze 24 at Redlight. The beer was briney AF and unlike anything I’d ever tasted. Paired well with the freshly shucked oysters🔥

Never tasted anything like it, smells of the sea, but tastes very fruity on the other hand. Weird and awesome

After a long day of drinking this did not hit the spot. Almost rotten brine. Imagine it’s what algae would taste like. Way off the 2022 Zwanze and can’t imagine it’ll be redone.

Insane! Sea water salinity, kale (ish) bitterness, mellows to more fruity but retains a tang with that cantillon sharpness to boot. On the nose it’s really pungent in a similar way to truffle and keeps pulling you back in.

Sehr spannend. Undefinierbarer Geruch, irgendwie chemisch (Pflaster?). Im Geschmack ganz leicht salzig. Mit Algen(?), Muscheln (?)

Zwanze 24 - really complex and at the end good balanced. Not a fan of seaweed but it works here.
