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.

On gravity at the Mermaid, St Albans 15/02/09. Clear gold in colour with a slight white head. A pleasant session ale with some sweet malts and decent floral and grassy hops. leading to a decent dry finish. Good.

Hazy blond color. Light malty aroma, with very light fruity hops. Fair malt and toffee flavor, good bitterness (lightly resinous), but missing some punch, the flavor seems flat.

Dark mahogany color. Aroma of caramel, mature, and some alcohol. Good body strength, with caramel flavor and light medicines, herbs; caramel finish. The final is quite empty. Rare example in England, but probably the yeast is not the best suitable one for this strong beer.

Dark brown color, almost black. Light chocolate aroma. Round body, with a good and smooth mix of caramel and chocolate, very light instant coffee at the end. Simple but good.

Nice aroma of fruity hops, some toffee. It has a good toffee flavor, with a hint of bread and cookies, and with a quite strong hopping, a bit fruity and earthy. Very good.

Hazy dark mahogany color. There is a light aroma of burnt malt. The mouthfeel is light, with flat caramel flavor, light chocolate, low bitterness and a light touch of burnt malt and paper. Nothing special.

Blond color. The aroma is simple, a bit grassy. It has a fair malt flavor and a correct bitterness, a light earthy touch raises the score, but nothing exciting.
