New Envie

Certainly more turbid with new yeast, as for taste it's better than the last version of envie. Reminds me of an east coast IPA. To be honest, I liked Bloom better than the new Envie. Looking forward to new Opus and Ghost with new yeast and to envie as they adjust the batches.

If anyone wants to get me some envie for my birthday, Thanks

When is parish going to quit tinkering with their recipes of known good beers? I can't be the only one a bit annoyed with not knowing how a beer will taste from one brewing to the next. if you tinker with the recipe then make it a new beer.
I may be a bit ignorant, but I can't recall another brewery that changes their known and liked beers so much.

In their defense the beers flavor profile was changing because of their yeast naturally evolving not because of a change in recipes. They have changed the yeast in an attempt to get their hoppy beers back how they were before the yeast evolved.

Most recent Ghost and Envie recipes didn't change, the yeast did because the old yeast wasn't cooperating.

There are lots of them out there that do this. I like it. Micro brewing isn't an exact science. Budweiser is pretty consistent, other than that, most microbrews have some fluctuations. I like it, actually. I may be in the minority, but I like the element of surprise. Maybe the beer doesn't taste EXACTLY like it did last time I had it, but it is still good beer. The fluctuations give us something to talk about, something to look forward to (in the next batch), and keeps the beer from being a shelf turd.

Ok, but why do other breweries not seem to have the same problem with their yeast?
Also, the last batch of ghost I would have dumped the batch as a different label. The taste, look, and even the head does not resemble past Ghosts. I feel like the reputation of the beer has taken a hit.

I see you post a lot on here and I respect your opinion, but the current batch of ghost doesn't even resemble the past batches. That's not a good thing in my opinion.

I gave growlers of DDH Envie for Christmas presents. I made a few friends very happy. Two left town so I have two for me.
