MERIT is right in the heart of downtown Hamilton almost hiding in plain sight. It’s not an unpopular opinion that MERIT’s beers can be hit or miss, but when they hit they REALLY hit it. Their milkshake IPAs, brut IPAs and sours in particular are fantastic. Now that they’re over a year old they’re already starting to get into some barrel-aged releases! I love the experimental spirit of this brewery and even if I’m not a fan of a new beer I try I can always appreciate their creativity. Oh yeah and the sausages are delicious.
We stopped in on opening day, and of course the place was nuts, but it was more than we’d hoped for. The beer samplers were outstanding, and the food was excellent too. We don’t get back enough…
Quick Tip: Go on a brewery tour: they tell a nice story and you get to taste some of their best beers.
