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.)

(On tap @ Birreria Volo, Toronto, Jan 19/18) Pours nearly clear pale gold with a small white head. Nose is hyper floral, punchy perfumed notes, lots of elderflower, light jasmine, subtle soft black tea, light apple. Flavour is more gentle, delicate notes of elderflower and apple saft, jasmine tea, slightly soapy florals, dry, no funk or anything of the sort. Light to medium bodied, sparkling carbonation. Very very floral, living in Sweden I've come to appreciate elderflower a lot but it might not be everyone's thing. In that context it worked really well for me.

(On tap @ Bar Hop, Jan 15/18) Lightly hazy light gold with a bare white ring. Aroma is bright white wine, high notes of grape, gooseberry, grass, funky hay, floral, tart apple of course, a bit of cider vinegar. Flavour is soft notes of green apple, white wine, soft grape skin, gooseberry, elderflower, wet grass, funky mulch. Soft acidity, dry finish, some funk in the finish. Lightish body, sparkling carb. Spontaneous vibe is there, as is the wine, but I was hoping for more prominent elderflower and a little more concentration. Solid.
