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.

Cask at Chelmsfaasarhd Beer Fest. Clear deep amber beer with a reddish tint. Small bubbly pale tan head. Light palate, smooth and fairly dry, modest fine carbonation. Thin chocolate malts, a thin earthy coffee. Mild esters and a mingy trace of ripe fruits. Light and semi dry finish. Hmmm, one of those milds where you wonder if milds going extinct might of been the best thing. But of course, plenty of other milds still tasting flavoursome.
