Opening in January 2002 in Manchester’s historic
mill yard, Milly’s Tavern is the city’s
only brewery. We handcraft our beer on premise using
our 15-barrel DME brewing system and use an all-natural
brewing process with no pasteurization or chemical preservatives.
We use the choicest ingredients in our beers, imported
malted barley, hops from the Pacific Northwest and Europe,
pure Lake Massabesic water and yeast from around the
world. We are proud to offer 12 beers on tap at all
times (8 year-around varieties plus 4 seasonal/specialties).You
can bring your favorite Milly's beer home or to a party
by purchasing one of our 64 oz Glass Growlers to go.
If you are interested in checking out our brewing process,
contact us and we would be happy to schedule a time
for you to participate.
Our Brewing Process and Beer
Our barley (which can range between 650 and 1300 pounds
depending on the beer) is stirred by hand in our mash
tun without the use of electric paddles and motors,
keeping this a very “handcrafted” process.
It’s also removed by hand with hoes and shovels
making this a labor of love.
Our brewing system is heated by fire just like in the
old world, which adds character to our beers through
the caramelizing of sugar in the brew kettle. We age
and condition our beers after fermentation to ensure
good clarity and to round out the flavors in our beers.
We do not pasteurize our beers like many large breweries.
Pasteurization kills all living organisms, including
yeast, which is rich in vitamins, and it also diminishes
the subtle flavors and aromas we’re very proud
of.
We are proud to offer our beers off-premise to your
establishment and if you ever have any questions about
our product or just about beer in general feel contact
us.

This American wheat ale is crisp and refreshing for that hot summer day.

Otto Altbier
Otto, a Düsseldorf Altbier. This beer was inspired by a trip to Düsseldorf's altstadt (old town) when I was a student studying brewing at Doemen's Academy in Munich. The altstadt has several fantastic brewpubs that produce some of the most wonderful tasting alts that I've ever tasted. Trying to be true to these beers, I brewed Otto with several German malts, a healthy dose of German Magnum and Tettnang hops and fermented with German yeast. The end result is a full flavored ale with a complex malt flavors and an assertive hop bitterness.

Milly's is proud to announce that we have recently installed our new beer engine which allows us to easily serve cask-conditioned ales. Cask-conditioned ale is an ale which is served fresh, unpasteurized, and unfiltered. The flavor and texture of cask-conditioned ale is quite distinctive; these ales tend to be very creamy and rich, with delicate carbonation and complex flavors. They are served at a warmer temperature than kegged beer whichhelps to showcase its flavor and aroma.
Milly's cask ales are conditioned and served in stainless steel firkins which hold 9 imperial gallons. On *Firkin Fridays*, we will be tapping a new cask ale which will be available throughout the weekend until it's all gone. Depending on production and consumption, a new cask will be tapped every Friday or other Friday. Look for Firkin Friday details on our website and in our email newsletter.
Cask Ale Now on Tap: Fisher Cat, dry hopped with Czech Saaz
Good afternoon Peter!
I do have to tell you as a home brewer and a micro brew hunter I have never paid so little for a great craft brew! I joined the mug club because I knew I would not find a better...
- A better staff, from the bartenders to the wait staff. I had only been in NH for less than a week and went to Milly’s for a beer and was met by all of the above and they had no idea who I was.
- Great beers, I can’t tell you how many brew pubs I’ve been to and to find Milly’s with 16 of their own beers on tap. WOW a beer for every taste. (I did know of Milly’s but had never gone to central NH before.)
- Nice pub menu. And then as with your beer prices Happy Hour Appetizers! I have tried many items from the menu, from just appetizers to the nightly specials, and never been disappointed.
I do belong to a couple of other mug clubs in CT as that is where I spend my weekends. I have never seen the selection or the pricing that you have here. I talk about the “Beat the Clock Tuesdays” at another brewpub in Manchester, CT and they can’t believe it (patrons, staff and management).
Keep on brewing and it is All About The Beer!
John
p.s. Please make sure you make enough money to be around for a long time!
