Overall similarity
hopIQ take
Ch'Ti Grand Cru if you want Old World refinement and restraint,
Wild Heaven Invocation if you want New World fruit and presence.
Both sit at 8.4-8.5% ABV with identical 25 IBUs, so they're built on the same backbone—but the execution and character diverge. Ch'Ti leans into Belgian tradition; Invocation lets American ingredient choices shine through. Neither is better; it depends on what your palate needs that night.

Tasting notes
Ch'Ti Grand Cru
Ch'Ti Grand Cru tastes like a Belgian brewmaster's handshake—composed and measured. You get that classic golden ale warmth, a whisper of honey and subtle spice that doesn't announce itself. The alcohol sits cleanly underneath; there's no heat, just a lingering dryness that makes you want another sip. It's the kind of beer that reveals itself slowly, layer by layer.
Wild Heaven Invocation
Wild Heaven Invocation hits differently—brighter, more assertive fruit character that reads almost tropical against the sweet malt backbone. There's a noticeable peach or apricot quality that American hops and yeast bring to the table. The body feels slightly fuller, more textured on the mid-palate. It's a beer that wants to be noticed, and it's charming about it.
