==Overview==
Every other year, Cantillon hosts Quintessence, an event celebrating food and beer at the brewery. Entrance to the event is staggered throughout the day. [[File:Menu Cantillon Quintessence 2005.jpg|left|thumb|150px|Cantillon Quintessence 2005 Menu]] Tickets for specific times are sold in advance and generally sell out before the day of the event.
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.
