Revolution Brewing<\/strong>, Chicago\u2019s largest independent craft brewery, is releasing the 2020-2021 lineup of barrel-aged beers from the Deep Wood Series. Revolution Brewing will release twelve unique barrel-aged beers between September and January.<\/p>\n\n\n\nThis year’s lineup hits with more barrel variety, blend complexity, and stylistic flair than ever \u2013 though the brewery is also bringing back refreshed versions of some of fan-favorite Deep Wood variants over the years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Every single turn from the brewhouse for the Deep Wood program has a purpose. Every time we mash in, we know what that finished product is going to be, whether it’s sweet component for extended aging, or a dry component that balances the final product,” Barrel Program Lead Marty Scott said. “We’ve really hit lately with traditional beers, engineered for ridiculous amounts of development, complexity and sweetness. Pair that with the improvements we make every year, and this year should be a banner year.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
