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 Southampton Arms, Gospel Oak, London, 20 April 2017) Golden colour with foamy, white head. Fruity, hoppy nose with tropical fruit, citrus, pineapple and grapefruit. Hoppy, malty taste with notes of biscuits, citrus, tropical fruit, grapefruit, resin and a dry finish with a balanced citric bitterness. Light body, quite dry. Tasty and refreshing. Nice one.

Cask at CBC, Clerkenwell on 12th April 2017. Gold with shallow lacing foam. Intensely hoppy aroma. Both grassy and citric in-mouth, with a savoury touch. Resounding hoppiness in the finish. Zingy mouthfeel and a fair amount of body. Absolutely superb!

Cask half-pint on 2nd Dec 2016: The Crown Inn, Oakengates. Delta is a new hop to me (I think), so I looked it up before writing this, just to see if my notes picked up the characteristics of the hops profile: I did not do badly! Light golden body, full white head. Aroma and taste were slightly citrusy and spicy in nature. Body wise a bit ’thin’ but flavour wise it was fine. I assume it is a single hop brew, but I can find no information on the brewery’s website to confirm this.

Craft 100. Clapham. Cask. Almost clear gold beer, no head. Smooth palate, semi dry, decent fine carbonation. Smooth light malts, midly sweet. Floral tangerine and a touch of tropical fruits, mild mango just about discernable. Light semi dry finish. Pretty tasty but curiously Sorachi light.
