Can. A light haze on this orange gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head that doesn't last. Light palate, mildly dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Light bodied pale malts, a forward creamy sweetness as per Phantom norm. Juicy and slightly tangy orange, tangerine and mandarin hops. Cooling pine of course. Mild hop spice. Touches of stone fruits and a little mango. Mild skunk runs underneath. Crisp finish. Pretty juicy.

Can. A mild to medium haze on this gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Light palate, semi dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Light smooth pale malts, the normal Phantom forward creamy sweetness but not overcooked. A nice trio of hop selection. Cooling pine overlays bright juicy stone fruits and coconut, a little pineapple. Fair nip of hop spice. Touch of tropical fruits. Light smooth finish. Bright juicy hop fruit delight. Very very drinkable.

Can. A light haze on this gold beer, small but reasonably persistent bubbly pale cream colour head. Light palate, semi dry, decent fine carbonation. Somewhat thin bodied pale malts, sweet but far from the Phantom norm of a pronounced creamy sweetness. Light cooling pine. A fair amount of tangy citrus and stone fruits, mild candy fruits. Mellow hop spice. Light finish. Curious offering. Somewhat thin and tangy. Far from the splendid 'Nothing But The Truth' I quaffed earlier. Yeah, one of the weaker Phantom dipas I can recall.
