great raft brewing

Stopped here on a Saturday, sampled a flight of their 5 current beers and toured the brewery. Overall, great beer, nice place to have a few drinks. It was my first time to a brewery that cans and also explains that process so it was neat. Since it is a production facility they don't serve food on site, but usually there are food trucks outside (when we went, the truck was late because it broke down). If you are into the craft beer scene, this is a must stop. Side note, my dog loves the dog treats.

Nice locally owned microbrewery that is doing it right. Tasting room is fun place to chill and have a drink and meet up with old friends or meet some new friends. Always have a food truck outside to grab a bite to eat. Southern Drawl, Commotion and Reasonably Corrupt are flagship beers always on tap and they usually have 1-3 seasonal/rotating taps.Relax and have a Real Beer

Was there for the 1 year anniversary party.First time I've been or even heard of Great Raft myself, but I'm not from the area. Really liked the beers, tried 6 or 7 different ones and actually liked all of them! Their darker beers were particularly delicious.They had some food truck vendors and live music while I was there, great time, and seems like a great business! I would highly recommend stopping in.

Visited this incredible place on a business tour. Not only was I impressed by the overall experience but to see such a successful business arise from a young couples dream makes the "American Dream" feel more alive then ever. The beer was fantastic and although the dark was my favorite I thoroughly enjoyed them all. They are what a true Craft Beer and Craft Beer Company should be!!!

We went for the tour and was hoping for some free samples. We tasted all of what they had and hated to see a few of them poured out as they were not to our liking. Hard to watch when you pay for the samples. Been on many tours and offered free samples with opportunity to purchase after you find something you like. Went on the tour. It was hot and hard to hear the guy talk and at one point very dark in the warehouse we were in. Overall we enjoyed the tour and the dark beer ended up being our favorite. There were food trucks and a large projector screen outside in the warehouse showing football and the atmosphere inside is good as well. We will be back next time we are in town.

Friday evening at Great Raft. Fun and funky brewery is open to the public Fridays from 4-8 and Saturday evenings also. You can test different brews made right here in Shreveport AND Ki'Mexico has their Real Mexican food available for purchase only on Fridays. The menu is short but deelish! Give it a try!

Thank you very much for visiting Great Raft Brewing. We appreciate your feedback and have already taken several steps to improve the quality of the tour experience. We hope you'll stop back by next time you are in town.

My new favorite place to chill on an early evening is the Great Raft. The indoor bar area is industrial spare with cool details and very casual seating--either at the bar or at pub-height tables or upturned 55 gallon drums surrounded by metal stools. Tasting glasses are available in two sizes with tokens to try several of whatever's recently brewed or you can bypass the check-in area and head straight to the bar area to order your favorites....mine is the lighter but full-bodied Southern Drawl and my husband chooses the dark but pleasingly smooth Reasonably Corrupt. In the actual brewing area, there are picnic tables set up under fans with the loading dock doors open to let in light and breeze and so that you can see and easily access the food trucks parked outside. Buy your supper or snack outside and bring it in to enjoy with your beer. Always good choices available from gourmet dogs, to fresh tacos or fried boudin.
