Batches of six Revolution Brewing beers recalled

Announcing the recall of batches of six beers, Joshua Deth, Chairman, and Jim Cibak, Brewmaster of Revolution Brewing, 3340 N. Kedzie, say that it is "strictly a quality issue." 

"The affected beers exhibit ester or phenolic flavors, which are more characteristic of Belgian-style ales, and which should not be present in our standard American ales," say  the craft brewer's. "We believe these off-flavors were produced by a wild yeast that has gotten worse over time and was not identified in time by our quality control methods. Our brewing team has re-propagated our house ale yeast, and all beer now being packaged at the brewery meets our standards for taste and flavor."

The only batches affected by this yeast issue are:

• Anti Hero IPA   8-5-16 to 10-11-16
• Fist City Pale Ale   8-11-16 to 9-26-16
• Cross of Gold Ale  8-23-16
• Mosaic Hero IPA   8-16-16 to 9-8-16
• Eugene Porter   8-3-16 to 10-6-16
• Unsessionable Imperial IPA 9-27-16 to 10-7-16 

If that batch information is on any keg or packaged product, owners may exchange it for fresh beer only at the Revolution Tap Room, 3340 N. Kedzie.  Any questions or comments may be to the brewers.
