History

Raffo dates to 1919, when Vitantonio Raffo established the brewery in Taranto. Raffo was family-owned until 1961, when it was sold to Peroni, which kept the original recipe, brewery, and employees. In the 1970s, 48,000 hectoliters were produced, thanks to the beer's diffusion in Basilicata, Lazio, and Campania. The region of Apulia always maintained the highest consumption.

In 1987, Peroni decided to close its brewery in Taranto and transfer production to Bari, putting an end to an important chapter of the city's industrial history. Nonetheless, Raffo continued to be the most popular beer of Taranto.

In 2008, Peroni added Taras, the symbol of Taranto, to the beer's label. The beer sponsors the city's Taranto Football Club 1927.
