Brasserie Fantome - legendary producer








Brasserie Fantome - legendary producer
Over the course of the last decade, we’ve seen the world’s best breweries imitated over and over again by a wave of newcomers wanting to capture the magic of the industry’s legends. Some of the new wave have even succeeded! We’ve enjoyed watching the evolution of modern pale ales, saisons, and sour ales quite a bit, in fact! But one brilliant brewery has remained untouched by imitators: Belgium’s Brasserie Fantome.

We’d attribute this to an essential, inimitable weirdness that is at the heart of every bottle of Fantome’s rustic, funky beers. Only one brewery can make this stuff, and we’re just fine with that. These beers are as delightful as they are unclassifiable, and while they might not all conform to BJCP style guidelines, they are always worth a space in your glass.

Fantome Biere de Cheval...$16.99 / 750ml
Saison with oats, collab with Avoine

A rustic and beautifully wild collaboration with Avoine, Fantôme Bière de Cheval brings the house’s signature farmhouse funk together with silky oats for added body and depth. Expect a hazy, glowing saison layered with herbal nuance, soft grain sweetness, and that unmistakable Fantôme earthiness. It’s an expressive, countryside-in-a-glass tribute to traditional Belgian brewing with a modern, textural twist.

Fantome Chocolat...$16.99 / 750ml
Saison with cocoa and chili

Fantôme Chocolat transforms the classic farmhouse saison into something entirely new, weaving in cocoa and subtle chili heat for a complex, dark-toned experience. Aromatic, lightly spicy, and playfully mysterious, it balances Fantôme’s airy, effervescent profile with warming chocolate notes and gentle pepper warmth. An enchanting, genre-bending brew only Fantôme could create.

Fantome Double Blaireau...$16.99 / 750ml
Smooth, rustic saison with Challenger hops

Double Blaireau (Badger) showcases Fantôme’s rustic side in full force, brewed with Challenger hops to add bright, green, lightly spicy hop character. Smooth, rounded, and deeply expressive, it’s a saison that layers soft malt, subtle orchard fruit, and countryside herbal tones into a wonderfully drinkable, old-world Belgian profile. A quintessential Fantôme one-off with charm and finesse.

Fantome OOUUPPSS!...$16.99 / 750ml
Peppery saison, collab with Mariatorge
ts Mikrobryggeri (Stockholm)
Playful by name and nature, Fantôme OOUUPPSS! is a lively, peppery saison brewed in collaboration with Mariatorgets. Expect a burst of farmhouse spice, citrusy lift, and classic Fantôme funk, all wrapped in their trademark effervescence. It’s an energetic, personality-driven saison that celebrates spontaneity, creativity, and the joy of off-the-wall brewing

Fantome Pissenlit...$16.99 / 750ml
Magical saison brewed w/ dandelion flowers

A true cult favorite, Fantôme Pissenlit is brewed with hand-picked dandelion flowers, giving this saison its unmistakable floral, herbal, and slightly bitter signature. Light, whimsical, and gently rustic, it captures the magic of spring meadows in a bottle, blending Fantôme’s airy funk with botanical elegance. An iconic, storybook saison that showcases the brewery’s wild imagination.
