I have tried to start with next config

```auto
version: '2'
services:
  kibana:
    image: docker.elastic.co/kibana/kibana:6.6.1
    environment:
      SERVER_NAME: kibana.example.org
      ELASTICSEARCH_HOSTS: http://elasticsearch.example.org

```

But in log messages

```auto
  log [13:30:22.733] [warning][admin][elasticsearch] Unable to revive connection: http://elasticsearch:9200/

```

With 6.6.0 version, ENV Works fine.

Hello,  
This is indeed a bug and a fix will go in v6.6.2.
