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.)

500 ml bottle. Pours a dull dark hay color with no head. Aromas of cloves, bright lemon, and dull apple. Odd apple pie and clove flavor with earthy floral notes and a bit of tequila (gin botanicals - I don’t know...)

Tasting at Brian's
Very pale colour, cloudy. Lots of chemicals and glue, light apple aroma, very dry mouthfeel, bit of lemony character, short finish. Simplistic and boring cider.

Very pale colour, cloudy. As announced on the label, this is full of botanical notes, but the underlying cider is poor, dry, weak; some soap character.
Very poor, pretentious stuff.
