Description
Illinois' largest independent craft brewery. Brewed in the heart of Chicago.

The change in the U.S. beer scene has undoubtedly been revolutionary. We are proud of what we have accomplished in our short time to become a leader and innovator in the industry. The evolving tastes of beer drinkers has demanded bigger flavors, more variety, and better beer. That’s exactly what we give you at Revolution Brewing. Between our brewery and our brewpub, we produce dozens of different beer styles every year. IPAs, porters, pilsners, Belgian-style ales, pale ales, barrel-aged beers — the list goes on!

Our brewery has been a labor of love. You can see it in everything we do, from the beautiful details of our mahogany bar at the brewpub, to the massive beauty of our eight 800 barrel fermenters at the brewery, to the commitment to quality in each beer that we put in a can or a keg. Revolution believes in the value of hard work. We work hard to provide great, accessible brews for everyday people. We have fun doing what we do and hope you have fun drinking our beers!

Can. Clear deep amber beer, small and short lived bubbly tan head. Smooth palate, modest fine carbonation, fine for this brew. Soft rich caramel and toffee malts underpinned by a smooth malt cream. The barrelling is quite something. Soft but rich bourbon and bourbon soaked ripe fruits. Wonderful cherry brandy richness that goes superbly with the bourbon. Super duper. Good solid barleywine that tastes like it would be good before it visited the barrels. The barrels take this to another level altogether. Sublime.

Can. Pours clear mahogany, medium tan head, dissipates relatively quickly, some lacing. Aroma is treacle, dark sugars, brandy, rum, caramel, toffee. Flavor is quite sweet, light plus bitter. Not getting peach per se, but it's good. Medium body. No heat.

16oz can. Purple-grey Kool Aid body. Steady white head. Drinkable enough for what is, some canned juice flavor and an indistinguishable base. Candy, cheap sugary flavors.

8.2/10
Sweetish, malty and slightly caramely with some barrel, toffee, syrup, prunes, figs, cherries and tartness. Would be better without the cherries.
