COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Fantapants is offensively bitter (like most redheads!) but begins slightly sweet, with an aroma of passionfruit and pineapple. The finish is full-bodied with a hint of biscuity malt.

Tap at Feral brewing, poured a nice dark copper. Aroma of pine and citrus and the taste is similar. This isnt as good as the hop hog or karma citra but never the less its a great beer.

UPDATED: MAY 12, 2011 Not as hoppy as I expected, this drinks more like a malty strong ale, with a moderate pine/citrus finish. Lovely Dark amber hue. Good full, sticky body. A bit straight forward in the malt biscuit body. Good but i was expecting a bit more.

maneliquor (1008) - Perth, AUSTRALIA - MAY 6, 2011
UPDATED: OCT 11, 2011 Tap at Mane Liquor. Pours a clear copper with a small, but dense beige head. Toffee apple pretty much sums up the nose. Noteable citrus come through in the taste with a nice caramel malt backing. Semi sweet and a fantastic lingering bitterness. Great beer by Feral once again

Tap. Bright clear copper with an off white head that’s angry with a swirl. Slightly creamy mouthfeel Aroma has stone (nectarine), tropical (pineapple, passionfruit) fruits and citrus with some caramel. Some toffeeapple in the taste along with the hop aromatics. Plenty of bitterness. Feral, indeed. And pretty shouty. Not really my sort of thing, but it gets away with it pretty well with huge flavours that just avoid being harsh and some semblance of balance.

TheGrandMaster (2308) - Auckland, NEW ZEALAND - FEB 14, 2010
Draught at The Local Taphouse (Sydney). Great name! Looks good too - a clear orange-red in the glass. Toffee malt on the nose, and even more so in the mouth. Light touches of banana as well. A heavy beer, but with a big sappy dryness that balances it out.

davidm (1246) - Melbourne, AUSTRALIA - NOV 27, 2009
Tap. Exceptional beer. Aromas of apple and caramel. Flavour has long duration, with moderate sweetness to start, and bitterness taking over. Silky in the palate, and medium-bodied. Red colour, with a white head that lasts long.

Tried on tap at Feral Brewery. Listed as an Imperial Red Ale and offensively bitter. Well for me it is bitter and it is upfront but not offensive though my partner thought it was. Noticeable citrus notes in the taste, definitely passionfruit, good dose of malty sweetness helps the balance. Very enjoyable.
