=History=
Cantillon's Zwanze series of beers and events began in 2008 with a bottling of a special lambic with rhubarb added. Since then, Cantillon brewer Jean Van Roy has used his Zwanze series of beers and the celebration days (since 2011) associated with them to bring lambic enthusiasts together around the world. Cantillon's website notes that the word ''zwanze'' in the Brussels dialect refers to a semi-sarcastic style of humor. That sense of humor is often reflected in the experimental nature of the beers, which are not always the most traditional of lambics. In the Flemish dialect, the verb ''zwanzen'' means ''to joke'' or ''to kid'', and this has been reflected in some of the stories associated with the Zwanze beers over time.
