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 β 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.)

0.355 l can from Muted Horn, Berlin, shared with little Dina. Aroma is a balance between ripe apple and cherry juice, nice presence of tannic fruit skins in the flavour, apple skins, cherry skins, cherry juice, light honey, lightly vinous, a touch of candy. Moderate sourness backed by some sweetness. Medium body, moderate carbonation. Light tart finish.

On tap at Muted Horn, Berlin. Shared with little Dina. Clear pinkish red. Aroma is strawberry, cherry, red grapes, some apple juice. Cherry brandy comes up. Quite intensely sour, nice sour ripe apple. Also lots of sour cherry and red grapes. Quite vinous. Rather thin. Nice apple skins and red fruit skins in the finish. Cranberry iced tea. Quite refreshing. Medium body. Lasting dry finish.

Vinous, but the strawberry cuts through that, and is actually somewhat dominant. Sweetish, but some tannins in the base cider.

Pale pink, nice bright plum on the palate, integrating well with the juicy apple. This is very good. The aroma isnβt as bright as the palate but still good.

Purple, vinous, nice apple base. The grapes are intense but itβs well-balanced, and the blackcurrants blend in seamlessly.

Bottle sampled at BC Cider Fest 2024, pours a clear pale pink with a small white head. Aroma brings out gentle, tart plums, apple skin and gentle acidity. Flavour is loaded with juicy plums, gentle acidity, light apple skins, and low-medium residual sweetness. Nice use of plums, finishing juicy and tart. Good.

Bottle sampled at BC Cider Fest 2024, pours a dark red with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of wild yeast, musty red grape skins, and light apple skins. Flavour is dry and funky, with a really nice dry red grape skin character, great bugs, oak, vinous notes and a touch of apple skins. Expertly crafted, dry, funky and complex. Excellent.
