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 the Pembury Tavern on 6th October 2010. Gold with a dissipating white head. Exquisitely hoppy. Rich hop grassiness in-mouth; grapefruit kick and deliciously rounded citric finish. Engaging mouthfeel. Possibly one of the best Milton ales I have drunk.

Cask at the Pembury Tavern on 30th June 2010. Thick, black body with a greyish head. Strong vanilla aroma and plenty of roast malts giving lingering coffee notes and some bitterness. On very good form in the pub, with a smooth but delightfully thick texture. Excellent.

Cask at the Pembury tavern on 30th June 2010. Almost clear gold with thin part-lacing white head. A fine blend of hops with notes of grass, citrus and just a slight savoury twist. Textured, slightly saline mouthfeel. Very refreshing in the current hot weather!
