Rev is a 7% ABV vodka-based cola beverage ( alcopop), infused with guarana. Malt beverage versions are also available in cans instead of plastic bottles. [1] Rev was originally manufactured by FBM Distilleries in Brampton, Ontario, Canada, but is currently also marketed as a malt-based beverage by the Geloso Group [2] [3] and distributed exclusively within Canada under license from Bacardi. The malt version is currently available in 3 flavours in Quebec: Original ("Blue"), Watermelon + Grapefruit ("Red"), and Mulberry ("Purple"). [4] The Mulberry flavour is sold only in Quebec, [5] with all over flavours being available in all other provinces. [6] The vodka based flavours, which are not produced by the Geloso Group, are available in red and blue (original) flavours. Rev Low, a purple, low calorie flavour of the drink, Rev Factor, as well as green and yellow flavours have been discontinued.[ citation needed] The drink is sold in packs of four 330 ml (12 imp fl oz; 11 US fl oz) bottles, [7] single 330 ml (12 imp fl oz; 11 US fl oz) or 473 ml (16.6 imp fl oz; 16.0 US fl oz) [6] bottles, and 355 ml (12.5 imp fl oz; 12.0 US fl oz) cans.
