In 2014, Cantillon invited the Russian River and Allagash breweries from the United States to participate in Quintessence. In addition to beers from all three breweries being served, a Friendship Blend ([[Cantillon Assemblage de l'Amitié (Wild Friendship Blend)|Cantillon Assemblage de l'Amitié]]) was available, which was an equal blend of the spontaneously fermented beers from each of the three breweries.
In 2016, Masia-Agullons joined Cantillon in the celebration, with more than a dozen beers available for onsite consumption. This was also the first time that Cantillon sold Lambic d'Aunis for takeaway. Each attendee was allowed ot to purchase one bottle.
