Description
Founded in June 1999, in Milton, a village on the outskirts of Cambridge. In July 2012, Milton Brewery moved premises to the neighbouring village of Waterbeach, securing the future of the brewery, providing much needed expansion and allowing for further growth.

The Milton brewery is a traditional English Ale brewery, albeit lurking in the cunning disguise of a 1980s industrial unit. We take the finest English Maris Otter malted barley, high quality whole hops and local brewing water to produce our award-winning ales.

Chelmsford Beer Festival. Cask. Light haze on this gold beer, a few pale cream colour bubbles. Palate is light and smooth, modest fine carbonation. Smooth sweetish malts, a touch of honey. Mild marmalade and a little lemon. Some sweet floralness. Light spice. Light dry finish. A dry but pretty drinkable golden. This ain’t an English Strong.
