Nov 23, 2005 Updated: Jan 13, 2006This beer poured a hazy dark amber brown with a small, off-white, quickly diminishing head. The aroma was full of citrus, holiday spices and coriander with a big helping of hops, horseblanket and cellar with neat band-aid-like retros. The body was light-to-medium with a light texture and lively carbonation. The flavor was lightly bitter in the front and intensified into a long-lasting moderately bitter finish.

Nov 13, 2005 One of the most bizarre beers I could ever imagine drinking, this is nonetheless a must try if you can find one. Dark flavors that I can’t even explain run wild here, making this a chaotic masterpiece.

Nov 12, 2005 Bottle. Dark copper color with a big beige head. Rich roasted malt aroma with a bit of alcohol and slightly sour. Sweet malt, chocolate, spice, touch of tartness, woodiness all combining in the flavor. Nottable alcohol. Not as straight forward and clean as many of their other beers, but still good.

Nov 10, 2005 Bottle. Sour cardboard aroma. Dark chestnut colour. Nice and stable, creamy light brown head. Flavour has a little cardboard too. Nicely peppery, but also somehow dry.

Nov 4, 2005 Fantome is one of my top 5 favorite brewers, so I was terribly disappointed with this one. Perhaps this became oxidized, but the condition of the bottle and cork showed no signs to suggest it. My sample was overly sour, a sourness which blocked out most every flavor--I couldn’t even detect the alcoholic warmth, so harsh was the sour onslaught. Occasionally, I sensed some darker malt flavors, but that’s about it. No finish to speak of, as the sourness dries any flavor, strangling it.I truly love Fantome’s saisons, but this one was a disaster. Drainpour.
