Oh, Fantome, cauldron of dark-winged mysteries and creativity, where did you go wrong with this one? Perplexingly blond for a "choclate" brew and sporting a fine, bubbly head. Jarringly funk-da-fied yeasty aroma with some Heinekin’s bitter skunk-funk toward the end. Viscous, syrupy wheatiness in the body, but neither a soupcon of cocoa, nor a scintilla of chili pepper prick. Funky and interesting, but inchoate and, overall, a disappointment.

Bottle. Bretty, delicate, nice apricot & nectarine, some malt and lemons in there as well. Vinous and funky, unique, but falls short of genius. Also, I have no idea what this has to do with chocolate.

Pours a slurry yeasty, off tan. Silly me, I was expecting something dark. Tart rhubarb and vinegar aroma, doughy and lemony, refreshing and tasty.

Bottle thanks to Blutt59. Pours a light orange color with a decent head. Nose is funky, vinegar, and dry dirty socks. The taste is that of a very mild chili pepper and mild cocoa that’s well mixed, but still strange. Glad I had it, but wouldn’t seek it out or probably drink it again.
