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!

Medium brown, thin head. Aroma has the same base fig, brown sugar and fruity rich malt, but with strawberry. Has more carbonation, so lighter body. Jammy strawberry, chewy malt base, again those more English bw flavours with vanilla and tannic dryness.

Medium brown, not much head. Aroma has a bit of sweetness. Figs, brown sugar, intense alcohol. Balanced, sticky, this is pretty good. Burly American strength, but a bit more refinement.

500 ml tall boy can. Yep. Hazy gold pour under a big foamy head that takes a while to dwindle down. Surprisingly big orange wedge smell, then a bit of malt. But there's plenty of hop to the taste. Strong beer and alcohol punch. A big fruity and hoppy punch.

16oz can. Concept is fairly reasonable. Hand this one off to one of the pastry sour places and they could do it right. Rev sort of half asses it, like they do everything else that isn't 2 dollars an ounce. Pretty much a sugary cider. Not so bad, certainly not so good.

Can. Pours deep black with a medium tan head and good lacing. Aroma is spicy, cinnamon, fudge, bourbon, dark malts, amburana wood. Flavor is pretty sweet, light plus bitter. Full body, creamy mouthfeel. Man I love amburana aged impys.

Canned 12/30/25, drunk 3/26/26.
Definitely smell whatever this added "natural flavor" is right away. Candied grapefruit and sugar candies with caramelized sugar and somewhat artificial cherry. Does not inspire a lot of confidence or make me excited to take a sip, but at least there's no alcohol in the aroma. Oh, and no hops.
Tastes like a liquefied lollipop. What in the actual fuck, man?! Caramel, weird flavorings and almost no hops. No alcohol either, at least, but that's about the only positive thing I can say here. It's not even syrupy or cloying, it just has an intense candy-like flavor. Surprisingly lighter-bodied too. Super f-in weird (bad) stuff.
