Revolution Brewing Bottom Up Wit

Pours beautiful, with nice color, suitable head, yet aroma, none.  

The taste is mild bananas you'll find in these Wit Weiss numbers, maybe just a few steps down from Julius' completely bananas Hefe Weiss that was slurping last night.  

But now that I think about it, I like the step down, mild hint of bananas, over the full El Hefe on a Saturday afternoon in December, when there a few NCAA bowl games worth watching without the kind of distracting banana dancing Julius brings to the party.   Just enough to remind one that this too shall pass (the raw, chopping cold Chicago winter winds outside).

Despite the lack of aroma, this Revolution has a very nice clove, banana flavor to infultrate a medium body, light clean bodied malt.  

You might ask,"why must the nector of liberty be drank from the skulls of the slain", but to you, I'd say Revolution Brewing's Bottom Up is the perfect tonic to all the top down, Soviet style centrally planned propaganda you'll hear over our airwaves. 

It's a light, egg cream version of a banana split without the bloated afterglow.
