Description
Cantillon Zwanze 2013 is the sixth release in the Zwanze series of beers. This series has been released every year since 2008, and beginning in 2011, with a coordinated celebration around the world at various beer bars, breweries, and restaurants. The 2013 edition is a top-fermented abbey ale closely resembling a Belgian tripel in style, with lambic added.
History / Other Notes
Zwanze 2013 was released around the world on September 14, 2013. It was mostly available on draught at the participating Zwanze Day locations, but was also available at the brewery in 75cl bottles for drinking on premises. The beer was brewed in March of 2012 and was fermented for four weeks in stainless steel tanks before being blended with lambic. It was then transferred into 400 liter barrels of different origins, matured for six months, and blended. After blending, it was placed into kegs and bottles, and reached 7.2% ABV.[1]
The yeast was selected in collaboration with the Institut Meurice, a college in Brussels specializing in biotechnology. This means that Zwanze 13 is not a lambic, in spite of the interaction of the spontaneous yeasts at the brewery, and lambic having been blended in. It is however another example of a growing number of ale / lambic blends.
