Bottle. Hazy brownish/amber with a fairly large head. Aroma and taste of malt, yeast, butter, earth, pepper, fruit, wood and some wine. Not that sour. Drinkable but not the best one from Fantome.

Bottle at the Kernel. Very hazy amber beer, tidy cream coloured head. Light dry palate, a little crisp. Dry. Medium sourness. Mild fruits with a little white wine. Wheat like malt and something a bit skewed, can’t put my finger on it.

75cl bottle, bought at the local butcher shop for the Pietrain Association. Petite déception après le bonheur e la version blonde. Couleur orangée brumeuse, col blanc fin. Arôme est citronné, agrumes avec un malt pâle qui se fait plus présent tout en gardant ce profile fruité pamplemousse. En bouche, fruitée, levure Fantôme, pamplemousse avec un malt moyen allant sur de cara rappelant un peu une veuille farine, côté sucré en retrait. Se termine sur une pointe amer houblonné et fruitée. Ici, le malt est pour moi mal adapté, et un malt fumé plus présent aurait vraiment fait l’affaire. Là à côté de la blonde y a pas vraiment de choix, la blonde l’emporte loin devant.

14/IV/2012 - 75cl bottle @ home - BB: not indicated on bottle, but according to sebletitje a freshly brewed batch (2012-366) Thanks to sebletitje for sharing the bottle!
Cloudy orange to amber beer, small off-white head, unstable, non adhesive. Aroma: bit fruity, grapefruit, bit soapy, some spices. MF: soft carbon, medium body. Taste: citrus, orange peel, mandarins, little bitter, some herbs, bit sour. Aftertaste: some citrus, little bitter, herbal, no smoke alas. A shame.

Bottle: Poured a clear deep dark golden color ale with a super large white foamy head with good retention and some good lacing. Aroma consists of light rustic malt notes with some lightly funky yeast ester and some bready notes. Taste is also a mix between some bready malt with some rustic notes some lightly funky ester and a very subtle tart notes at the end. Body was lighter then most Fantome beers but still quite full compared to the competition with some great carbonation. This is a good beer form a brewery that has a tendency to be all over the place dome time though a lot les unique then some of their other offerings.
