The Mosaic batch? It's pretty mediocre. Definitely not as good as OG Envie.

OG Envie? The baby ghost initial batch was the best, when they first changed the recipe. I like that more than their DDH x2 or whatever.

it is funny the next 4 posts after mine agree with it yet i get 4 downvotes off the bat.

Im sorry i can see through Parish's marketing ploy to keep yous peoples small brain occupied. Yous remind me of a stupid redfish, throw a gold spoon out and watch them run for it.

tell you the true i used to think that. I just drank a DDH Envie last night and it wasnt very great. I was disappointed.


I agree as well. The DDH Envie Mosaic was not very good at all especially for that high arse price tag it touts. In fact, I prefer regular Envie over all of the stupid iterations that they keep robbing you boys pockets with

6 pale ales for $10
4 quantriple-double fukity fuk hopped Envie for $13-14

I'm not sure what's so ludicrous? 2 friends (fellow FBDers) & I had a side-by-side of Parish GitM, Trillium Mettle DIPA, & Great Raft G&G.

The Parish Ghost was the winner. Trillium a close second. Great Raft was a worthy contender.

Parish Bloom, 4XDH, Jucifer...there's a long list still.

Then you have the smaller microbreweries like Courtyard putting out Preach! That's a better IPA than 90% of the market.

Per capita we dominate the stupid redfish category. It's like saying LSU is DBU. It's the truth.

That's your test to see if LA has breweries that compete nationally? Two LA breweries and the 10th best IPA that trillium makes?

Don't bother, he's a huge local homer and he thinks Boston beer in general is overrated.

I've had multiple Trillium beers and multiple Parish beers. 4xDH, Bloom, Opus Vert, Ghost, DDH Envie, Envie. 6 IPAs I would stack against any of Trillium's IPAs.

Being that taste is subjective and all, hell yeah
i enjoy Parish brews and spend shite ton of time at the brewery it being right down the road from the house
but there's not 1 beer they produce (right now- Batch#4forlife) that hold its own against a Thrill beer
None, zip, nada

Would you expect anything else when you compare Parish to Trillium?

Then let me expand.

No. The Haze Craze was started elsewhere.
LA breweries are just brewing what the market wants because they had it elsewhere and it's what sells.

The 2X 4X 16x 64XD whatever are just marketing terms. It's similar to the IBUs space race of the 2000s. MOAR HOPS!
