London’s Truman’s has made its foray into tank ready beers with RAW, an unfiltered lager that the brewery said is full bodied with delicate flavours and aromas of light honeysuckle and biscuit.

The new beer is balanced with bitterness from Czech Hallertau Mittlefruh hops and leverages the ‘RAW’ moniker to illustrate the condition of the lager, which ensures no flavour or aroma has been stripped out by filters or external gases.

The Lager is unpasteurised and unfiltered while the delivery process ensures the beer never reaches above 5°c, ensuring minimal oxidation and no contact with any external oxygen or CO2.

James Morgan, Truman’s re-founder, explained: “We’re excited to have produced our first tank beer, Truman’s RAW, which perfectly complements our existing range of cask and keg beers.

“Truman’s are committed to, not only brewing but also, supplying the freshest beer possible to our customers and Truman’s RAW is the epitome of freshness.

“Truman’s RAW is jam packed full of delicate flavours and aromas, our processes ensuring every pint is pure and unadulterated – as nature intended!”

The first order of RAW has gone to Hippo Inns, with the beer being served to the public from February 2017 at The Eagle, a former Truman’s pub located in Ladbroke Grove, West London.
