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.)

Bottle pour at Stillwell. Pours hazy gold with a small white head. Lots of musty apple skins on the nose with earthy and fruity notes. Flavour has tons of tannic apple skins, dry pears, good amount of must. I don't normally love a perry, but this is super tannic and a bit funky; great.

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.
