True Brew is the eighth studio album by Swedish punk rock band Millencolin. It was first released on 22 April 2015. Stylistically, True Brew returns to the faster punk rock sound of Millencolin's 90s releases and marks a departure from the more alternative rock driven sound that dominated the albums since Pennybridge Pioneers. Unlike past releases, the album is more political in tone, evident in songs such as Sense & Sensibility which condemns the rise of right-wing populist parties in many countries of Europe.
