MERIT x Fairweather Brewing
When we opened back in 2017, we found ourselves in great company in the Fairweather Brewing team, who opened in the same year! To commemorate our combined fifth anniversary, we brewed Day Ones, a tart, grisette (think small saison!) with Indian Coriander and Grapefruit for a deliciously flavourful and dry drinking summer favourite. From our Day Ones to yours – enjoy!

Early Grey Tripel

Tomorrows starts as a traditional Tripel, brewed with oats, wheat, and barley. After fermentation, cornflowers and Earl Grey tea from Monarch Tea Company are added. Why? Because we love working with people who make awesome tasty things. The addition of the cornflowers adds a vanilla-like sweetness that is balanced by the bergamot citrus and floral characteristics.

SVP
French Table Beer
3% abv
It’s time to reclaim the lunchtime pint. Meals should be worth celebrating, and what better way to do so than having a pint in hand while you take a mid-day break to enjoy a bite? At 3%, SVP is approachable, but different than most attempts are creating a “light” beer as it’s brewed with wheat and barley, and fermented with our house saison yeast.
