Description
Moonshine Brewery has been established for over 20 years in the Cambridge area. In that time we have won numerous national and regional awards. Our beers are characterised by their clean, fresh taste which is thanks in no small part to the natural spring water that is used to make them.
Officially started brewing as Cambridge Moonshine Brewery in May 2004 using a 2½BBL self-built plant in the owners garage in Cambridge. The brewery moved to the current location during Summer 2008 at the same time upgrading to a 5BBL plant and changing its name to Moonshine Brewery.

Bottle at Bruce’s, London. You are all so very welcome! Pours thick, black-brown with a fine, creamy tan head. Dark and lightly burnt malts in the nose, hints of iodine, suggestions of tangy dark fruits. Medium sweet flavor, some tangy dark malts, mild cocoa, burnt oak, mild vinous quality, some roast. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Light dryness to finish, some bitter cocoa, charred wood, mild earth, subtle fruits. Pretty nice beer overall.
