Description
Fantôme Chocolat is an intriguing Belgian-style beer that hails from the verdant region of Wallonia, Belgium. This bold brew distinguishes itself by marrying the classic attributes of a Saison with a luxurious chocolate twist. At an ABV of 8.0%, it offers a balanced and approachable profile, while the gentle bitterness of 22 IBU keeps the experience refreshingly crisp. Expect the typical farmhouse complexity of a Saison, with layers of sweetness and spice that are complemented by subtle cocoa undertones, creating a palate that is both surprising and gratifying. The beer's unique character makes it a versatile companion for a variety of culinary endeavors. Pair it with rich, savory dishes like braised beef or a hearty mushroom risotto to highlight its depth and complexity. Alternatively, it works beautifully alongside desserts, particularly those featuring dark chocolate or berries, which resonate with its inherent chocolate notes. For cheese lovers, a creamy blue cheese can enhance its spicy nuances and create a harmonious balance of flavors. To truly appreciate Fantôme Chocolat, serve it in a tulip glass to concentrate its aromas and allow the head to develop fully. The ideal drinking temperature is slightly chilled, around 45-50°F, where its flavors can unfold gradually and reveal their full spectrum. Whether you're enjoying it as a standalone indulgence or pairing it with a thoughtfully prepared meal, this Belgian ale promises a distinctive and rewarding tasting experience.

Swapped out my usual Fantome Saison for this one. Still got that weird farmhouse thing going on but the chocolate makes it pretty different, might grab it again when I want something offbeat.
Response from CBC Liquors, Westford
Good call switching things up from the regular Fantome Saison. If you like this twist, keep an eye out for their coffee version too.

Shared a big bottle with my partner over pizza night. She liked it more than me, kind of unusual vibe for a saison but worth a try.
-
Didn't know what to expect but honestly, better than some fancy bottles that run twice as much. Love that chocolate twist, especially for this price.
