| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Oct 15, 2009 (on bottle) At last a beer from Fantôme I liked. Hazy mahogony in color, no head. Aroms of barley and cassis. Soft carbonation. Sour, freash finish, the taste drawes one back for more with a fine blend of cassis and alpine strawberries.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 18, 2009 Bottle: Deep amber, reddish hue, thin off-white head, moderate sudsy light beige head. Musty barnish nose, a little roasty and black like malts on the tongue. Tart and dry as well, mild sweetness. Barnish, a little malty. Not as bright as others. Perhaps that’s the intent. Meatier Saison by all means but not as tart or dry as other examples. Odd duck.

| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Nov 28, 2009 Dark brown in colour, with beige head on top. Aroma is fruity, malty and earthy with a slight burned edge. Taste is round with a little sour side, fruity, berries, cereals, chocolate and some greeness in the finale.
Strange but originale beer. 17thfloor (1501), Chicago, Illinois, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Oct 27, 2009 Bottle shared with Davinci and xnoxhatex. Pours a clearer glowing but dark rootbeer color with a tall frothy light beige foamy sudsy head. Creamyish full aroma, rootbeer candy, spicy, somewhat mellow, enticing but round. Flavor is of burnt rubber, spicy, tires, dark dark, charcoal, some sharp sweetness towards the finish, almost a hint of sourness, overall nice and dry, hint of brett and yeast, crazy weird. Medium bodied with lively medium large crisp carbonation. All I can remember about this beer is sweet burnt rubber. presario (3001), Calgary, Alberta, Canada
| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 1/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Oct 27, 2009 Bottle. Thick head on very dark amber. Sour grape and cherry aroma. A lightly flavoured with too much pepper. Light caramel before the spice but the spice overpowers the beer.Grapenuts and pepper?! Out of nowhere in the aftertaste comes a hint of chocolate. xnoxhatex (1305), Grand Rapids/Chicago, Michigan, USA

| 4.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 19/20 | Aug 28, 2009 Bottle. This beer is EPIC. Pours almost solid black with a thick, brownish head. Aroma is fruity, with hints of berries and maybe a bit of spice. The flavor is outrageous, and the body is almost as strong as a stout, Kick-ass beer for a kick ass time.
