look: 4.5 | smell: 4 | taste: 4 | feel: 5 | overall: 5

12oz. can poured into a pint glass. Really glad to see Revolution available in stores finally.

(A)- Pours a clear goldenrod yellow color. Some good froth and lacing formed. Really solid retention too.

(S)- A nice big hoppy citrus kick to this. Some pineapple and pine needle action. Ever so slightly sweet. Really alot of hops in this smell.

(T)- A really nice smooth crispness combined with smooth hoppy pine and subtle honey sweetness. A great combo of harmonious citrus, pine, and sweet malts. Nowhere near as explosive as the smell was, but for the better this gives way to a great IPA

(M)- A great carbonation level and balance. What I like so much about this one is its not all about how many hops we can smash into the beer, but rather its smooth drinkability and harmonious balance. Just a great crisp and refreshing beer really.

(O)- I was actually quite surprised by this one. Perhaps a new favorite for the style for me. While it is hoppy and fits the style, its not some massively hopped one. Incredibly smooth while maintaining some bitterness, a touch dry too despite being rather thirst quenching and crisp all over. Really well done!

12 oz. can poured into a teku

Appearance - Fairly hazy golden orange color. About one-finger creamy head.

Smell -Cannot smell much of the hops. Picked up several fruit flavors.

Taste - Right amount of hops with the grain and sugar taste. Also picked up the grapefruit flavor.

Mouthfeel - Medium carbonation lingers for a bit, fairly heavy on the tongue, delicious nonetheless.

Overall - I thoroughly enjoyed this one. Not too hoppy like many IPAs, which for me, allowed me to pick up some more of the fruit and sugar tastes. However, a little too carbonated for me. Overall though, a solid IPA, especially out of a can.

12 oz. can poured into a snifter.

Appearance - Clear golden orange. Decent white head and retention. Thick collar of foam.

Smell - Not all that hoppy. Not enough for me at least. A little bit of grassy pine. Some sweetness.

Taste - Grain, a touch of sugar. Some hops. Grapefruit and pine. Not very hoppy. Cloying sugar in the finish with some fruity flavors.

Mouthfeel - Seems much heavier than it should feel. Medium carbonation.

Overall - Disappointing. Not very hoppy at all. Some funny fruity off flavors too.

Received a couple of Cans in a recent trade and was excited to give it a try.

A: Pours a light copper color with a 3 inch billowy head that I had be careful did not overflow the tulip glass I was drinking it out of, solid lacing throughout. 4.00

S: Big fruit aromas, perhaps the strongest tangerine, grapefruit, general fruitiness I have ever smelled in any beer. A slight resin aroma at the very end. 5.00

T: Follows the smell, juicy and fruity in the beginning with a nice hop bitterness to round things out, highly drinkable. 4.25

M: Just right, fills the mouth without being cloying or thin, just a bit sweet, goes down nice and smooth. 4.50

O: Extremely impressed and surprised at how good this was, really wish I could get this on a regular basis. 4.50
