Fantome ... where to find in USA ?...

[danyP]

yes really where ?...

They are all in stakem 's basement.

All
of
Them

 

[ChairmanHoltz1]

I occasionally see Fantome around New York City. But I haven't seen new Fantomes here in a while. Whenever I've been in the Boston area, I've had luck finding a good Fantome selection.

 

[BadJustin]

For us in Upstate NY, you are carried by Remarkable Liquids and at the better bottle shops.

 

[FoudreGuy]

Nebraska. Good Life Provisions does a good job spreading the wealth.

Here, Shelton Brothers WA seems to send 95% of them to bars for on-premise sales and the rest to Garden Path Fermentation, 65 miles north of Seattle.

 

[sherm10161]

Shouldn't Shelton Brothers be able to tell you where it gets distributed?

I see it on occasion in Chicagoland. Never in Wisconsin, as we've previously discussed.

 

[lb304854]

Chicago gets a good amount but it's spread very thin across a few stores.

 

[Beerologist]

Occasionally I can find it at one shop in southern Rhode Island. Not nearly as available as I’d like.

 

[nothingisreal]

I have a shop that is half an hour away that has carried Fantome for quite sometime, one of the few bottle shops in the nearby area that I can stop in at any time to grab bottles of Fantome. The bar I work at does not carry any Fantome though :-( other than the Jester King collab when it came out and I grabbed most of it for myself. I have managed to get whatever draft we get through but it has been sometime since a keg has passed by, last time was probably early-mid last year?

Where I live in the USA, the easiest way for me to find it is on etre gourmet and waste a ton of money on overseas shipping.

Last time I saw a bottle in a shop in Pennsylvania, they wanted me to buy tickets to a lottery to try and win the opportunity to buy a bottle.

Do you remember any places specific? I know of 2 places in the Somerville area but it's rare I see anything besides Pissenlit and DMD. I'd love to have a constant ghost supply.

Redstone in Stoneham (not exactly convenient for you) has like 6-8 different tomes seemingly at all times now.

Hmm good to know, I haven't been there in 3-4 years, might have to take a run soon

 

[Der Fuchs]

Its pretty accessible in new Orleans most of the year.

same here... i get most of my stash from Etre or from people around the country in the few states where they actually have some. MI used to get a bunch but now hardly gets any, MO and CA still seem to get some... SC used to get only Hiver... not sure about now a days but i've never understood the distro pattern

Craft Beer Cellar in Framingham had a few different bottles if I recall correctly. I've seen Fantome other places in the area, but I don't remember where. It was over the course of several visits over the last few years. Maybe I just had good/lucky timing.

On a somewhat related note, Oliver's in Albany, NY always has a great Fantome selection.

Etre is still my best source. If I fill up a 12 shipper, it's cheaper per bottle than buying locally.

 

[Sage1]

Bine & Vine here in San Diego consistently does: https://bineandvine.com/?s=fantome (Note: Not all of those are in-stock; you have to click through to see which ones are in stock or not. The owner has just recruited me in helping him fix that, which hopefully I’ll get to this week. And for those of you who are shipping international, this might be cheaper for the things that are in-stock?)

I believe that this is true of most things coming from Belgium via Shelton.

 

[mbh]

There’s a ton in Baton Rouge

 

[JCastle1]

I saw a few in Miami this past weekend at Boxelder and Union.

 

[mjohnson171]

As stated above, Chicago gets a little bit, but not much, and it's spread out only to a few places. So it's almost impossible to find just sitting on a shelf.

I would love to see more Fantome. I believe the issue is the distributor, Shelton Brothers imports it and sends it through a local Chicago distributor and somewhere in that process not much actually makes it to the Chicago public. (maybe it's lack of stores asking for it too?)

Last time I saw a bottle just sitting on a shelf was 4+ years ago; granted I don't get to every bottle shop in Chicago, but Fantome is not easy to find.

This is my hookup and etre, due to... Texas and no tôme.

 

[nodamagedone]

Just saw saison, turtle, chocolate, bris-bonbons, dark white, and dark forest ghost on the shelf here in Chapel Hill, NC. I think saison was the cheapest at $16.99 and bris was $21.99

When you diving back to Sconnie?

 

[mateoloco]

Atlanta started getting some once Shelton came back about 16 months ago. I've seen bottles of Saison, Dalmatienne, Vertignasse, and DMD Target Bond. And a few others on draft.

The Cheese and wine shop in Burlington VT

I see it on occasion in Chicagoland. Never in Wisconsin, as we've previously discussed.

was in De Pere, Milwaukee, Oshkosh and Appleton until ..... 5 years ago??

 

[sherm10161]

Yep. And the 2012 Hiver is still sitting on the shelves, at least in Milwaukee.

Shelton doesn't like Milwaukee/Wisconsin. It's fine. I've come to terms with it at this point.

 

[Lutter]

I'm usually able to find it at Argonaut Liquors in Denver, CO when I go for GABF.

Not in Texas though.
