Bottle from Tasty Beverage in Asheville a few months back. Shelf was overflowing with new Fantome stock. “Best before end of 2020”.
Ommegang anniversary glass. Big lathered head leads to a clear copper brew. It actually takes quite a while to dissipate. Subsequent pours are somewhat hazy.
Smells of leafy bitters, honey & very mild banana yeastiness. Nothing fancy.
Taste is soft but numbing lingering bitterness, Cheerio turning into toasted/lightly charred maltiness. Missing that third note. Tastes like a less than super fresh ipa of unknown origin.
Foamy, super-carbed(but not infected), dry. This is okay.

Bottle into a fantome tulip appears copper in color with huge off-white head.
It smells green and yeasty, somewhat carbonic and mineral laden with toasty to bready grain also included.
Taste has a clean yeasty profile akin to pepper and clove with bready malty grains behind it along with a green vegetal taste that lingers long after the swallow with mineral and carbonic character.
Light to medium in body with more than ample carbonation. This is young, and it tastes like it. Luckily it is not excessively bitter like many of the recent releases have been.
