Background
Phantasm was developed in New Zealand using freeze-dried skins from Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc grapes—an area known for its high thiol content. Thiols are highly aromatic organic compounds found in hops, grapes, and grains, and are responsible for many of the tropical fruit aromas in modern beer. When used during fermentation, especially with biotransformative yeasts, Phantasm releases a burst of juicy, wine-like complexity. It’s not a fantasy—it’s biochemistry in action.
