Details:<\/strong> Commercial Description:<\/strong> Why I selected the Revolution Fistmas<\/strong>: Initially, the fruity\/citrus aroma caught my attention. \u00a0It was not overwhelming, but was very distinct — with a mellow orange\u00a0aroma. \u00a0 Along with the oranges, the sweet malt aroma was somewhat subtle. \u00a0 Quite inviting, but not in your face holiday beer.<\/p>\n Poured from a can, the dark\u00a0amber body was covered by a frothy off-white head. \u00a0When held up to the light, the body was so dense that you could not see through it. \u00a0 From the first sip, a\u00a0strong bitter flavor emerged, followed by a sweet molasses like\u00a0finish. \u00a0 The ginger flavors are more dominant in the finish, but well balanced.<\/p>\n Revolution brewing company raises their fist to traditionally Holiday ales and delivers a tasty seasonal offering.<\/p>\n About the 2Beerguys.com:<\/strong> <\/p>\n About Revolution Brewing Company:<\/strong> The growth of craft breweries in the U.S. has been nothing short of a revolution and we’re proud to be standing tall in this new crowd.

\nTis the season and I\u00a0am a lucky recipient of the Revolution Fistmas in a care package from Chicago\u00a0(thanks\u00a0@Thirstynobeard and @Jlj_love). \u00a0 I was very excited to try something from Revolution Brewing Company, having only tried one beer from Revolution previously (double fist). \u00a0 Unfortunately, Revolution brewing does not distribute in the North East so this was a treat.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/www.2beerguys.com\/images\/header.gif\")
