Oh I get it... it's different because you didn't use the circumflex in Fantôme.

This is a no [circum]flex zone

danyP you are the kindest man who has ever lived. After mentioning that the labels on his bottles are difficult to remove without damaging them, I get this in the mail:


Thank you so much! Now I'll definitely have to make the trip to Soy soon to thank you in person.

/.. hahaha ! no problem ... welcome ..

Dany drinking a pissenlit now. Very spicy but smooth drinking for unseasonably warm weather

danyP, your last batch of regular saison that was imported to the U.S. was the best Fantome I've ever had, and definitely the best saison I've ever had. Thank you!

I bought the bottle within the last month, so I'm assuming it was a 2015?

Here are the notes I took while drinking this one:



This is the best bottle of standard Fantome that I've ever had.

Tons of citrus rind and strawberries. Little bit of that dusty basement, mushroom dirt, and funk that always comes with a pour of Tome but it's almost buried under a layer of fresh cut tangerines and strawberry juice.

11/10

No date anywhere on the label. Are the corks dated with the year?

really no, ... it's impossible to change at each bottling ...

I am new to the site but this is a pretty cool thread; thanks to danyP for sharing brew notes & his philosophies on life. I very much enjoyed this from an interview link:

"To craft brew is also to try to have a simple life—even if not always easy in this life, and in this world of money. I really try to keep my real friends, and have good time for them."

This is a great way to look at our time on this planet, both for work and for life satisfaction. I have not had many Fantome beers, but someday maybe Texas will release their merde regulations & we will try more of his creative brews. Until then, I am happy to evangelize his beers even more due to his strengths as a good human.

God bless the brewers & keep on rocking danyP!

Little help needed... trying to find a beer for a friend. He had it years ago, says it was a fantome beer with children wearing masks on the label. I can't find it anywhere online.

Says it was one of his best beer experiences ever. Any thoughts what this could be?

Fleur de Bomal maybe?

 

[stakem1]

Fleur de Bomal maybe?

This was my first thought, but then i looked at a bottle and they are just wearing hats with straw in the one's mouth.

Nothing else really comes to mind except some of the Santes have kids on them but the mask thing just doesnt ring a bell.

 

[PepeSylvia1]

Update to this... he says he thinks it had some sort of mushrooms in it.

Really stumped. Any idea on how many "years ago" it might have been? Where did he try it? States or Belgium?

 

[Bill2]

Is this the thread to make a stand on grammar?

Stopped reading after this comment, which surely is the best one in the thread, barring all danyP replies.

 

[PepeSylvia1]

Yeah was in the states, I think he got it in PA, was kind of his "aha" moment with beer. It was probably about 10 years ago.
