The Swift/BAT hard X-ray transient monitor reports renewed activity in the 15-50 keV band from the supergiant fast X-ray transient and HMXB neutron star system IGR J18483-0311. The source has increased in intensity from its normal level of approximately 0.001 cts/cm^2/sec (~4 mCrab) on 2011 Nov. 18 to a level of 0.013 +/- 0.003 (~60 mCrab) on 2011 Nov. 23 (MJD 55888). This is the highest level seen since August 2008.
