I will have to compare bottle v can to make a final decision. As a session type beer commotion might be better, but T-ghost was a hell of a surprise.

I still like Commotion in the machine better, but sober research is needed.

Same here. I do remember that the nose was great. I am looking forward to trying a few bottles this week.

I definitely prefer the new Envie over Commotion. I think it is more aromatic, juicier, and lighter bodied. Baby Ghost is an appropriate label.

Well said, I concur. Much less malt comes through than Commotion (not a bad thing on Commotion's part, just less "juicy" than baby ghost)

Not on shelves yet, but should be later this week. I think this first wave is pretty limited though

New Envie is pretty damn good. I don't know that it'll supplant Commotion as my go-to beer, but it's up there and will be in the rotation. Need to try it sober.
