What are the Milwaukee Brewers team colors?

The colors alternate between Home games, Away Games, and alternate games.

For home games, the Brewers wear a light colored Navy Blue, and there logo is spelled out 'Brewers'. The 'Brewers' words are outlined with a white line and a gold line. The use white pants with a navy blue strip.

For away games, they were a plain grey jersey with blue strips going down the buttons. The words are again spelled out 'Brewers' and the same outlining. They use gray pants with a navy blue, dark blue, strip, for away games.

Alternate games are not as often as home or away, thus, giving reason to make the jerseys different.

Alternate games come about once or twice a year, maybe three times. For the Brewers, the colors are a white jersey with dark blue strips. The logo is spelled out Brewers, but not in cursive like the others. The hat is gold, blue, and white.

So, to sum up, the colors of the Brewers are: Gold, Dark/Navy Blue, and white.
