Much like Zwanze 2008, [[Cantillon_Zwanze_2009|Zwanze 2009]] did not have an official release date and was quietly distributed to bars, restaurants, and festivals around the world. Zwanze 2009 is a lambic with elderflowers added.  In 2010, Zwanze 2009 would become [[Mamouche]], a regular addition to Cantillon's lineup.

Zwanze Day 2019 took the same basic form as the previous Zwanze Day celebrations. The beer brewed for the event was the [[Cantillon_Zwanze_2019|Zwanze 2019]], a two year old lambic brewed with a portion of smoked malts. It was available mostly on draught during the celebration as well as in bottles for on-site consumption at the brewery.

==Zwanze Day, 2021==
September 25, 2021
Here at Cantillon, we’re no strangers to experimentation.
In the early 1950s, Paul Cantillon tried blending lambic and oranges. The result wasn’t exactly spectacular. The refermentation in the bottles was so strong that the brewery workers at the time were forced to sprint past the bottles through the cellar in order to avoid being hit by popping corks and drenched in beer. Our grandfather Marcel Cantillon loved this story, and often loved to tell it to us as children.
So 70 years later, inspired by our great-grandfather, we’ve made a special blend of lambic and citrus (a blend featuring mostly oranges) in his honor. The acidity of the beer and the fruit and the freshness of the citrus in contrast to the bitterness of their zests makes for a particularly thirst-quenching Zwanze.
The name Parasol will remind my fellow Belgians of a certain age of the orange-flavored soft drink of the same name we used to drink back in the day.
This year’s Zwanze Day will be held on Saturday, September 25th. The event will be worldwide once again, and a list of participating locations will be published in August.

==Zwanze Day, 2024==
==Zwanze Day, 2024==
April 20, 2024
April 20, 2024
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!
