quantifiers - Milk is countable or uncountable

I'm doing my homework. The question is

Is this sentence
Paul drinks much milk.
grammatically correct?

For me the answer is yes, because the quantifier "much" is used before non-count noun. But according my book my answer is wrong. Anybody can help me, please?

Answer

I think the lesson on Learn English Today is very clear.

A lot of can be used in all sentences: affirmative, negative and interrogative.
Much and many are used in negative and interrogative sentences.
They are rarely used in affirmative sentences, except if they begin the sentence.

So, the sentence in the question is most commonly written or spoken as: "Paul drinks a lot of milk."

The context seems informal, and using "much" in an affirmative gives a more formal tone that sounds odd when used for a simple statement like that one.

Here is an example of using "much" in an affirmative sentence from an article on theguardian.com: "There was much talk last week of how he would be remembered for keeping Britain out of the euro[...]"

It is common to use "much" in a negative, as in: "Paul doesn't drink much milk."

or in a question, like: "How much milk does Paul drink?"

"Much" is also used with too or so, as Damkerng T. points out: "Paul drinks too much milk." or "Paul drinks so much milk!"
