    Cantillon just posted the locations on their facebook page. Sept 20 at Jester King. I'm hearing different reports on what the beer will be, a new batch of Cuvée De Florian maybe.

    A different blend of Cuvee de Florian, which is double-hopped Iris, blended with Cherries.

    It was free last year. There was a lottery system in place to get a 4oz pour of the Zwanze beer.

    The 2014 Zwanze is a remake of Cuvee de Florian, a blend of the following:

    Three year old Iris which was *not* originally dry-hopped (i.e., Iris Grand Cru which was served at some places for Zwanze 2013). The portion for this blend was dry hopped at the time of the blend at a rate ~ 20% of that for normal Iris.

    and

    Kriek with ~ 50% of the normal amount of cherries added.

    Or just make a drive to New Orleans where you don't have to worry about a raffle.

    We'd of course sell the keg of 2014 Zwanze if it were legal to do so. Instead, we're legally obligated to give it away for free, and a raffle is the fairest way to do so. I suspect our Zwanze Day 2014 bottle share just might make up for it. - Jeff

    I'll definitely be at Jester King for this. Even if I don't win the lottery I can still drink Jester King beer. It's hard to be sad about that.
