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.

Tasting at CBJ, thanks to LKS. A light haze on this pinky yellow beer. Small pale cream colour head. Airy smooth palate, a little dry, good fine minerally carbonation on the back end. Light malts. Good black pepper spice offset by light strawberry. Little tart fruits. More black pepper spice on the back end. Long peppery linger. Good fun.
