adamjackson (1196) – Canaan, New Hampshire, USA – APR 30, 2013
Acquired at Hunger Mountain Co-Op for $20. opened at 65F to a gigantic gusher (it’s sat upright in my cellar since October without being disturbed). I lost 24 ounces of this beer onto my effing wood floor so the price per ounce of this beer is $10 per ounce.. what a jerk. Honestly, after the 5 sciences saison was flat, and now this? What a waste of money. I’m not buying Fantome anymore.A – The haziest, murkiest most disgusting looking peach beer every with a 1 finger head (murky because all of the yeast sediment previously at the bottom of the bottle went everywhere during the gush)
S – Lots of pepper and cloves. Slightly funky with a hint of tangerine.
T – easily the spiciest beer I’ve ever had. Hint of Jello-gelatin pieces. loads of spices, cloves and coriander. some earthiness and funk. Quite a bit of citrus
M – Medium body, medium carbonation
O – Fantome Boo is drinkable for Fantome beers. I’ve had 1 good Fantome beer ever. the rest were not good. that good one was Extra Sour. I’m done buying these beers.
I had a bottle of that around New Year’s Eve. It was OK. Kinda weird with the pumpkin.. A mix of sour beer and sour food. I drank it, but did not love it. Barely even liked it. It wasn’t a gusher, though, not at all.
Hey Alan. I was trying to convince my buddy this was more like a big Porter than a stout and not really worth the hype. It tasted like a barrel aged porter to me with a bit more chocolate.
Yeah, it was a pretty light imperial stout. But I think you’re talking about this one : http://adam-jackson.net/beer/review-foothills-barrel-aged-sexual-chocolate-imperial-stout/#comments

You’re right. the back end commenting system is a bit one-directional so I sometimes reply to the wrong comment – http://images.adam-jackson.net/image/3M2P3x243U2f
