ABOUT US

We are a family-owned and family-run business. We believe in good beer, good cheer and local pride. We dream of growing all our own ingredients locally and currently purchase all we can as close to the brewery as possible.

    OPERATION CANNING -- The sawdust is settling in Paonia as Revolution Brewing completed its expansion, adding 900 square feet for brewing and brew storage and upgrading to a 4-barrel system. One project left on the docket, though, is a biggee, adding a canning system in time for the popular hunting season. To get things rolling after installation, brewer Mike King will start canning an ale and a lager.
    King also reports, "Cherry Haze IPA sold as fast as we could pour it, and the Cherry Days celebration sold us completely dry." To replace the IPA and keep their customers satisfied, they are planning to release a new brew soon, Neural Cascade, an American-style pale ale thick with Northwest hops.

    Colorado's smallest microbrewery, Revolution Brewing, in Paonia, is also making changes as they have doubled their capacity since opening and expanded the size of their tasting room. Despite the increase in capacity, Mike King reports that they still sometimes sell out by Sunday. Maybe the fact that the brewery is housed in a 700 square foot former church has something to do with its popularity! Beers available are the North Fork IPA, Sticky-Thickett Nut Brown, Stout Ol' Friend, and House White, brewed with Challenger hops. In lieu of eating more fruit (which may be one of your new year's resolutions), just drink plenty of Revolution's spring seasonals - Cherry Wheat and Doc's Dismay Apple Ale.

We started a brewery because we love to brew. The brewery is Mike's second home -- and you'll generally find him there brewing something. Our beer is brewed daily to provide the freshest flavors and widest variety we possibly can.

'Cause after all, fresh is good. Come join the revolution.
