Description
Founded in 1988, Brasserie Fantôme has gained international attention and a cult following among lovers of craft beers. Owned and run by Dany Prignon, Fantôme is known for its unique variations on the Saison style of farmhouse ale, often involving the use of herbs, spices or fruit juice. Within the craft beer community, Fantome saisons are considered highly desirable and have developed a significant audience in the United States and United Kingdom. Ironically, while their complex, earthy, and herbal flavors have caused them to be sought out by connoisseurs outside of Belgium, Fantôme's products are difficult to find and not well known in the country of their origin.

75cl Fles van Etre Gourmet. Licht mistig, goudgele kleur, witte kraag. Ruikt en smaakt als een doorsnee witbier, tarwe, wat sinaasappelschil en korianderzaad, licht bloemig en zoetig van de vlierbloesem, lichtbittere finish. Lichte body. OK, had op meer vlierbloesemsmaak gehoopt.

Pours bright, clear gold into a tulip. White head with medium retention recedes to skim surface. Band aid, lemon and funk aromas. Soft with band aid, horse blanket and mildly tart lemon pith front to back. Medium length band aid funk finish. Nice funky Fantome.

75cl fles van Etre Gourmet. Amberbruine kleur, beige kraag. Donker fruit, zoetzuur, fruitzuur, karwijzaad, vrij kruidig, ruikt als een mix tussen een quad en een zurig bokbier, smaak blijft toch wat achter en is vrij dun met vooral het karwijzaad en het gistige zuurtje. Redelijk bitter ook. Ik heb nog een paar Fantoompjes staan, maar ben er wel klaar mee merk ik, het is het allemaal net niet (meer).
