Jun 8, 2005 I have never, ever seen so much pressure from a beer. We lost a quarter of the bottle opening it up. Green apples, barnyard, tart, cheese, spice in the nose. Very tart start to the mouth with green apples, earth, mold, but not rounded at all. Needs timie. Sour apples alcohol finish.

May 30, 2005 earthy dark brown with a fairly full brown head. Aroma is malty and fruity. Dark fruits, yeast, wheat, and some sweetness, all pervaid in the nose. Flavor is tangy and astringent. Sharp musty malt flavor with some backgroung bitterness. Earthy and dusty flavors, very complex with deep fruitness throughout. Medium to full body and very smooth and drinkable. Quite active, efverscient and at the same time, spicy.

May 16, 2005 Bottle: Courtesy of jsquire at Schroppfy’s gathering. Light dark malts and lots of spice with a moderate sweetness and light sourness. Pours an orangish-brown with an off-white head and some sediment. Flavor is a funky coffee with a light chocolate and some spice. This one’s just not working for me.

Dark brown, almost opaque. Tanned creamy head. Typical Fantome barnyard-nose, some alcohol, roasted malts and yeast too. Flavor with roasted malts is like drinking Irish Stout plus much more: spices (black pepper), barnyard, cardboard. Spicey aftertaste. Complex, interesting and very earthy.
