Bottled. Hazy amber colour with a fluffy/foamy white head. Aroma is zesty, spices, some slight sweet malts as well as mild earthy noted. Flavour is zesty, some citrus, mild spices, yeast and some earthy notes. Refreshing and rather nicely balanced.

I’ve had this bottle since 2001 and thought I’d check it out after 12 years ageing. A brilliant orange coloured pour with a medium white head on top. Sour fruity aroma. Tastes slightly sour, citrus fruit, apples, zesty. This aged rather well, I have another bottle in the cupboard, might keep that for another 12 years.

2006 tasted in October 2008 thanks to Greg at Birreria Paradiso. Cloudy amber, thin pale head. Aroma of clove and orange. Smooth and mellow, like orange candy. Find this one and lay it down for a few years.

Bottle courtesy of The_Beer_God. Thanks Mike! Pours pumpkin colored with a medium sized fast disappearing head. Sour aroma with notes of caramel and spice (thyme). Taste is a little underwhelming compared to the aroma, but still a very nice light funk and dark fruits. Very complex beer and very nice.

Bottle from Bier circus, Brussels. Vintage 2001 (20 Euro bottle): Pours dark muddy brown with a creamy off white head. Earthy, spicy, peppery aroma. Both sweet & sour Roasted malts - caramel & chocolate. Smooth & soft with a sour freshness. Giant sediments in the bottom of bottle. Another exciting fantome experience!

Bottle at London Gathering Nov 2005. Orangey gold colour. Very sour. Some nice apple/lemon. Quite nice sourness, then a bit of funkyness. Quite nice. Will definitely see if I can get to the brewery.

[Sampled at the Pre-GABF Babblefest 2004] An unclear dark orange beer with a nice white head. The aroma is sweet spicy with coriander standing out, but also with notes of yeast. The flavor is sweet with notes of alcohol, caramel, and spices.

Bottled (Helsinki Beer Festival 2004)
Orange, extreme hazy. Steady orange head. Aroma is fruits, malt, apples, citron, orange and chocolate box. Very dry and sour and unique taste. Mold and wood flavor. Peppery aftertaste. Certainly unique brew and one third of bottle was enough for me (cost only 5 euros!):)

Bottled. Orange coloured and cloudy. Very complex estery aroma, I get melon and bubblegum. Firm yet fruity, then a new sensation sets in, a hot cayenne pepper finish!?!
