Yeah, they got dat...
I have never tried either. What are my realistic expectations? I only got them because of the constant praise (or bashing) of them on here.

Great local beer you're lucky to have available at your local grocery.
And then there is the Ghost.

Ghost hasn't been the same since they stopped putting rare in it. Envie is top notch doe.

I'm not a beer snob, I just saw them both on the shelf and new they weren't always easy to find so I picked them up. We'll see what happens

Damn...i just looked at my receipt and realized the ghost was $16

Most places sold Ghost for $12.
Great DIPA, even the November batch the mavens have been bitching about.

I paid the same, and bought 5 4 packs.

I can't believe they are finding people to buy this batch. I heard it really fell off.

That's why it was still in the shelf. I like the beer but at $8.99 for six pack of Envie it's hard to buy the other. Same price for Commotion so it is my can go to beer.
I did buy a case of the double hopped Envie but haven't tried it yet. That Bloom is damn good too. Wish it would hit the shelves.

Disappointment.
Followed by regret that you paid so much for shitty beer.

congrats on your shelf turds

Ddh envie is great for a rare beer. It's my special occasion beer til my case is gone. Envie is my everyday beer. Ghost, Opus, dr hoptagon are my once a week beers.
Crowd control beats commotion out for my go to can beer.
I also have some Elysian space dust that is good for a more ambery ipa.

Not everyone is saying that. I like it better than the November Crowd Control.

Shelf turds. They changed he formula. Not as good as last batch. They're only out to win awards, not make a good product. What's the date on them? Too clear. Too cloudy. Etc. etc.

time for my unrefined and uneducated update....
the date on the ghost is 11/14, the envie is 10/18
I am seriously digging the envie, not so much the ghost. It is just a little too dank for my tastes. I do enjoy the over-the-top citrus on the nose, but that's about it.
I'll offer the other 3 bottles of ghost to family when they come over for christmas
eta: I'm also just drinking them straight out of the bottle, so I know I'm not getting the full experience

I'm sorry I just don't get the hype. It's a good beer to have as a staple in the fridge, but there is absolutely nothing special about it IMO.
Now feel free to rain downvotes on me.
