Yeasty flavour of yellow fruit, spices, cane sugar, butter and flowers. Herbal, floral, and yeasty long finsihs with noted of butter. A lot of interesting flavours going on here....

Oct 2, 2006 Cloudy copper with a large white head. Surprising funky aroma. This thing smells like something hairy and spices I’m not used to get in a beer (steak spices!?!). Very yeasty beer, full of hay, some lemon skin, lilacs and other flowers. Full body. Very complex. After drinking this Fantôme Dandelion I thought dandelions were the greatest flowers so I gave a full bouquet of it to my girlfriend. I’m single now.

Sep 11, 2006 Updated: Sep 14, 2006Label marked spring 2004. Tart at the start, dry and spicy at the finish. Great tangy, mouthwatering aroma, slightly metallic. Very subtle bitterness at the end as of arugula, which I’m assuming must come from the dandellion. Floral, earthy, restrained wildness. A truly beautiful beer. Just a little rough in the transition from tart fruit at the beginning to spicy dryness at the end. Was the perfect accompaniment to salmon burgers with feta cheese and avocado.

Sep 9, 2006 In refernce to my other Fantome rating, i could be a window cleaner for them as well and still be happy. I would have an invisible squeegee made out of gatiti. Ona serious note, one of the better Saison’s Ive had lately.

Aug 22, 2006 ehhhh, this was more of a lambic to me. just big sourness up front in the nose and flavor. It had more body than a lambic but just sour all over. i don’t understand the dnndelion thing but that description to the left is way too long.

Aug 13, 2006 Enjoyed with the Minnesota crew a long time ago and taken from old notes. Pours a dark cloudy amber color with lots of carbonation. Very strange sour flavor,bitter and lemony citrus-like. It was a refreshing brew.

Jul 24, 2006 2004 Bottle. Found this at my beer store, and didnt even know it was a Fantome until Id already got it home and was looking at the bottle. Pours out a dark brown color with a very large head. I got this beer alot cooler than the normal beers I drink because I love saisons cooler than other beers. The result was great. Smelled yeasty, fruity, full of oak, and grassy. Taste was very similar with the sweetness of the malts really coming out. This was an awesome thirst quenching summer beer that I would love to get more bottles of, and I just might next time I go to the store. The last pour was a terrible one, when my hand slipped and I dumped about half of the shit that was in the bottom straight into my glass. Oh well, it was still good.
