Zwanze Day 2026 at The Whale :: Charleston

Join us at The Whale :: Charleston on Saturday, April 25th, for one of the most anticipated beer events of the year: Zwanze Day With All The Fixin's!

Every year, Cantillon releases a special, limited Zwanze beer that is poured simultaneously at select bars around the world. We’re thrilled to once again be part of this global celebration of lambic and community.

For the first time ever, two Zwanze variants will be tapped. This year's release is a collaboration between Cantillon and Vermouth Sullivan, featuring two experimental blends: Artémis La Rouge, a Kriek blended with a vermouth-inspired herbal elixir and Artémis La Blanche, a Lambic blended with a botanical vermouth elixir.
