Revolution Brewing (2021)

Can't wait. The Firestone Anniversary beers are always so much fun and all the Deep Woods beers have such good examples of blending, I love seeing Cuvee de Grace make a return.

But, hypothetically, if you were to design your own blend (feel free to shout out some one-off components), what do you think you'd go for? Definitely not asking for Cuvee de Grace this year, actually curious where your tastes would lead you.

 

100% with you on that, but everyone's got their thing. It was always fun to get treats like Deth Ryed on the draft list.

 

Did the Deep Woods mystery bag for the first time yesterday and got an Apple Brandy, SJ and a t-shirt (along with some other small merch stuff). Great little package I must say and I was excited to try AB which I hadn't been able to try yet.

Solid offering but not my favorite, they definitely hit what they were going for and it was good to try but glad I didn't get a 4 pack.

 

Thought this was a cool post from Rev.

Rev social media: “No pressure Victor, but if the public doesn’t like this, we’ve already positioned you in front of the bus.”

 

Deth Weaver crowlers for sale on the site again.

 

...and it's gone.

 

Brewpub is coming back in a week!!!

Drinking another On and On right now..this beer is drinking awesome right now.

No real news, this beer just kicks ass.

 

That being said, I wonder when Part 2 from HA will be coming out. It’s gonna be a barleywine, correct?

 

That is for sure! I sometimes think that $11/can for some of these beers is just way too much. But then I think of the mediocre-to-lame beers I have spent my money on, and realize these Rev beers are outstanding in taste, and in value.

Stop the tomfoolery... In 2021, Half Acre will release On & On: Part 2, a Willett bourbon barrel-aged barleywine.

 

So we're under a week until Cuvée de Grâce on sale. Anyone in the know on what the blend is comprised of?

 

Based on how good their previous Deep Woods beers have been I would guess a blend of 30% unicorn tears of joy, 30% rainbow dew, 20% sunshine mist, 10% puppy breath, and 10% Straight Jacket.

 

As excited as I am for this, I really hope the menu change/reduction last year was for 2020 shutdown reasons, and the old menu will return. Rev's assortment of burgers before the change were some of my favorite in the city!

I most recently ordered "The Burger" (the only burger on the menu now) and while it wasn't awful by any means, it wasn't great; at least not up to my usual Rev standards. Again, I'm chalking it up to a major cutting of costs for 2020, and I'll most definitely be one of the first patrons when the brewpub opens back up, hoping it was just an anomaly.

 

Looking forward to returning to the pub this Friday and hoping the Coconut Eugene and '19 Boss Jacket are still on.

 

The online public presale for 2021 Cuvee De Grace will start Tuesday morning, so I went back and looked up some info on the previous version released 1/24/2020 at the taproom with no distro, at $35/4pk. It weighed in at 14.6% ABV and was a blend of:
36% Two-year aged Straight Jacket
17% Sweet Deth's Tar (2114)
17% Thundertaker
14% Two-year Jamonilla
10% Two-year Gravedigger Billy
3% Port-barrel-aged Straight Jacket
3% Madeira-barrel-aged Straight Jacket
