Description
Raw Brewing Company was created from a passion for real ale and an idea that became reality. After several years of enjoying real ale David decided to have a go himself as a hobby to see if he could produce quality real ale. After several months it was clear that the product was good with the assistance from an army of tasters! It was time then to turn this passion and idea into reality Raw Brewing Company was born.

First brewed 14th May 2010. Following financial issues, the brewery was taken over by Silver Brewhouse who still brew their brands. From circa 2021 some Raw beers were released as Silver Brewhouse beers, and the Raw brand was discontinued.

Cask at CPK, London. Pours dark, ruby-brown with a light, filmy head. Cocoa, roasted malts, and hints of fruits in the nose. Light sweet flavor, dry roasted chocolate malts, some prune. Light to medium in body with soft carbonation. Dryish, roasty finish, slightly oily, cocoa, character seems to fade a bit too quickly. Some earth hops to linger, though. Alright stuff.
