Description
Revel started in 2014 as a solo passion project. Imagine our excitement when it turned out that, hey, lots of folks are fermentation enthusiasts!

By 2022, our team was seven people strong — with over 1000 cases of Revel bottles and cans shipped to discerning drinkers every month.

Our characterful native yeast fermentations explore the endless flavours Ontario has to offer. Combining farm-grown and foraged fruits, discovering what the fermentation process yields, and aiming to bring out the best of each ingredient is what makes us excited to come to work every day. (Well, that, and all the incredible smells.)

Aus der Flasche im 2025-06 getrunken. Dieses dunkelrote Cidre-Wein-Hybrid kommt mit wunderbaren Aromen von schwarzen Johannisbeeren und Sangria daher. Der Körper ist sehr kräftig und sorgt für einen wunderbaren langen Abgang.

Clear 750ml from Press online. Direct Import Vines.

See through, raspberry iced-tea body. Quick soda spritz.
Super fresh strawberry nose, grass, rich grape skins, with a hint of bitter-tart cherry pits.
Taste is earthy, tart & slightly greasy cherry, over sharp & slightly funky floral apple. Developing apple tannins, bubblegum, watermelon jolly rancher, watery wine. Lower abv but it has some warmth. Residual tart apple & cherry funk with some rice sweetness.

Good if a little pedestrian.

Can from Volo in Toronto.

It’s a very light gold with thin fizzy white foam and a prickly carbonation. It says it’s a uk style wild fermented cider. Earthy rich apple aroma. The taste is the same but when paired with strawberry sweets floral notes came out. This is a really nice dry cider.

On tap at Volo.
Slightly hazy golden pour, with a tiny white head. Aroma is fresh cut apple skins. Crisp, clean and refreshing. Fresh tart apples with a subtle sweetness, and a huge fresh apple flavour. Excellent pub cider.

Hazy and pale. Light greenish colour. This has a nice tart apple note, slight vidal accent. Some floral accents from the honey. This is good - all the sugar stuff rounds it out.

Cask days 2015. Clear yellow, no heaf. Aroma is tart/ sweet apples, some honey, and hints of brown sugar. Good mouth feel, low carb. Finish is sweet, i assume from the maple, but im not getting any distinct maple flavour of saltiness. This is just a slightly sweeter than usual apple cidet. Not terrible, but great either.

Tap at bar hop 2. Clear yellow pour, no head. Aroma is very much like gin. Big juniper note, with subtle honey soaked lemon zest, and some sweet freshly cut apple skins. Mouth feel, and carb are what youd expect. The finish is sweet, and savoury. Solid herbal notes, more juniper, some pine and even a hint of elderberry. The apple seems to take a back seat, buts its always there adding a nice sweetness to cut the copious, and strong herbs. Interesting stuff.

Aroma has a nice blend of blueberries, grape must, wild yeast, and some tart plums. Flavour is a nice melange of fruit, with lots of blueberries, some grape skins, tart plums, and wild yeast. Real nice cohesion of the disparate fruit character. Real good.
