Can. A light haze on this pale yellow beer, small bubbly off white head. Light palate, a little dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Light pale malts, but this is Phantom, so there is a good creamy sweetness. Crisp cooling pine. Good juicy citrus, bright, Rakau exotics, even some Strata passion fruit although, quite light. Light finish leaves a juicy fruity hop linger. Impressive sipa. Very light but properly hoppy and drinkable and, at 3.4%, I really could drink this all night!

Can. Not really a gusher but, defo a bit too lively, no effect on the flavour. A ammild to medium haze on this paleish yellow beer, small off white head. Airy palate, a little dry, decent fine minerally carbonation. Smooth if thin bodied pale malts, the Phantom creamy sweetness punches through anyway. Light soft pine. Good hop citrus, lively thanks to the Azacca lemony streak. A little tangerine and mandarin. A fairly smooth finish finds everything coming together well. Another well crafted low abv hop treat from Phantom.

Can. A mild to medium haze on this yellow beer, small off white head. Light palate, fairly smooth, some dryness, good fine carbonation emerging late on. Smooth light pale malts, a good creamy sweetness, Phantom style. Soft cooling pine. Nice Peacharine delivery, soft floral peach very much evident. Nelson brings a mild but pleasing grape. Light finish. Cracking, 2nd impressive sipa on the trot from Phantom (the other ain't on Brewver yet). Ideal Sunday night brew when you know Monday is going to be a shit day at work. Very light alcohol wise but properly hoppy. Really well done for the style

Can. A mild haze on this yellowish gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Airy palate, semi dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Thin bodied pale malts, the Phantom forward creamy sweetness. Soft pine. Soft and slightly floral hop fruits. A little juicy mandarin. Mild hop spice before a light and semi dry finish. Drinkable but, second one on the bounce, not up to usual Phantom standard, certainly lacking a little hop muscle.

Can. Just a light haze on this gold beer, small tidy pale cream colour head. Airy palate, mildly dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Light bodied pale malts, a decent creamy sweetness. The hops initially felt slightly watery but, I think that was just a come down from the previous Phantom brew which was particularly good. Azacca starts to show that lemon edged citrus. Strata, as so often, disappoints, some very mild skunk, maybe a forensic amount of passion fruit. A mild hop spice tingle on the end. Decent, some more hop welly would have carried this a long way.
