Bottle @ ORL throwdown. Hazy gold with a fizzy white head topping it. On the nose I get apples, barnyard funk, grass, pepper, and a slight tartness. In the mouth its again fruity apples, pepper, hay, tart and sour. Drying, slight pucker to the finish. One of my favorite Fantomes of the evening.

O town Throwdown, bottle courtesy Beerlando. Amber orange pour with a thick white head. Aroma of apple, orange, black pepper and good belgian funk. Taste is clean and smooth, citrus hints and black pepper spice. Finishes a with a little citrus twing. i really liked this one.

bottle: pors a lively apple juice colour small littel bubble off white head very nice. aroma is a good peppery funky small lite apple, earthy. flavour is light some what floral, peppery very good, some good sweet sugars blend into it also with a touch of apple or pear.

Pours a clear orange-amber color. A foamy, cream colored blanket leaves soapy lines of lacing behind. The aroma is complex, showing fruity, golden apples and pears in the forefront, followed by musty, earthy floral notes and a healthy dose of spicy white pepper. Flavors were even spicier than expected, with the pepper really pushing through to the front. Pale candied malts, orchard fruits, earthy wildflowers, and dry, leafy green spices are all well blended. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with fizzy carbonation. Really nice and unique. This is one of my favorite Fantômes.

Shared at the lated O-Town tasting cortesy of beerlando...Poured orange with a lasting foamy, white head. Aromas consisted of spice, funk/must (in a good way), anise, sour fruits. The flavor was a refreshing blend of sour fruits (apples/berries), mustiness/earthiness, and spice. The palate was very carbonated, but the dry finish with that zingy sourness on the tongue really provided a nice punch!

Bottle courtesy of Duane. Hazy orange, decent head fades to film. Huge horseblanket, farmhouse mustiness in aroma. Flavor has all the farmhouse funk, some tart fruits and light green bottle skunk. Sounds underwhelming, but something is so right about it Carbonation falls apart a little bit, but still stays dry in the finish. Very nice overall.

Bottle… Murky, dark caramel ale with a small, creamy, khaki head. Good retention. The aroma is of ripe apples and spice. Light to medium-bodied with soft carbonation. Earthy, but tart and fruity. Reminiscent of green apple cider. Tangy, watery finish. Thanks to mgumby10 for popping the top on this one!
