Revolution Brewing (2023)

What's the special draft today for VIP early pickup?

 

Buddy confirmed earlier. Yep. Was rooting for Supermassive since I won't have time to go tomorrow, but this will do just fine.

 

Honestly cannot believe you can spend more than 5 min on this site and not be driven to drink (for some reason or another)

 

Wild that International Language night is busier than some of the Deep Woods releases I've attended.

 

For whatever reason Thursdays usually work best for me to visit Rev Kedzie and those nights are PACKED!

Chicago Fire nights pale in comparison, at least based on my limited sample size.

 

I’d always seen the signs for the language club and considered attending but had no clue how many people usually showed up. Didn’t get a look at how many people were at the Japanese table but given how busy it was today I’m definitely more likely to check it out sometime.

Grateful for the Super Zero cans they threw in with the season ticket. I’m a huge fan of this, nice citrus hop character and a really soft carbonation.

 

I got to try Super Zero and really enjoyed it. For me it leans more into a replacement for a beer rather than a hoppy seltzer water like Hoppy Refresher from Lagunitas which has been my favorite hop water to date. I think there's a place for both. The hops on Super Zero really shine whereas in Hoppy Refresher they're present, but not the star. For reference the Lagunitas Hop Water (no brewers yeast) is super harsh for me with nothing to round of that bitter taste.

 

Yeah, my friend who proxies our season tickets said he got a 6 pack tonight. Excited my allocation is secured!

Agreed 100% on Lagunitas Hoppy Refresher. I do really enjoy their Hop Water though. I bought Sierra Nevada Hop Splash today and it's probably my least favorite so far. Has an almost vegetal quality to it and wasn't as refreshing as any of the Lagunitas. I've had the Central Waters Hop Water with nectaron & citra. It was pretty good, but something seemed different and when I looked at the can it was 0.5% alcohol, which is negligible for most, but probably not for BA's like @CB_Michigan . I saw Noon Whistle hop water 4 packs at Binny's today. That'll be my next go after Rev.

 

I’m living vicariously through you all! Plus, I had a pretty good time clearing out the cellar from last year’s season ticket. There may have been a few “2 can solo” evenings
Hmmm…Can Solo + Deth’s Tar = marketing gold!

 

Or as @GuyFawkes calls it, a weekday.

 

Its fine. I'd get it to try if you haven't had it but isn't as good as Hoppy Refresher. The label is super cool though.

 

Amazing there's no adjuncts in Dread & Breakfast.

 

...there's coffee in it.

 

Sometimes. If just doing pickup and not staying for pours you should be GTG either way.

 

Someone remind me--is it cash only for pours? I haven't been to enough beer events the last couple years and my brain is starting to rot as a result...

 

Card and cash accepted per Instagram post today.

 

Cool, I'm probably thinking about a couple years back lol.

A post that I read earlier today, but clearly lost in the pre-caffeine haze. Thanks!
