At the bar, Bells and Whistles will showcase a wide range of classic German beer styles by tapping into local and import brews like Four Winds’ Holz Pils Foeder Fermented Pilsner, Hacker-Pschorr Munich Gold and Paulaner Hefeweizen.

ZWANZE DAY CELEBRATION
Saturday, September 28

The worldwide phenomenon known as ‘Zwanze Day’ will make its triumphant return to Bells and Whistles on Saturday, September 28. Zwanze Day is an annual celebration that sees less than 100 taprooms around the world selected to showcase an experimental ‘lambic’-style beer produced especially for the occasion by renowned Belgian brewer Brasserie-Brouwerij Cantillon as part of its ‘Zwanze’ series.

The 2019 Zwanze Day beer is a blend of classic pilsner malt and smoked malt brewed on March 1, 2016 and kegged on January 26, 2018. Bells and Whistles is one of only three Canadian locations to participate in the event, and will be tapping the only keg of this year’s exclusive Zwanze in Western Canada, along with seven other exclusive lambic beers from Cantillon. The event starts at 10 a.m. and will be first come, first served.
