Union Craft Releasing Forever Merriweather

FOREVER MERRIWEATHER

“Merriweather Post Pavilion was set to close twenty years ago, but a group of friends and live music fans teamed up with local politicians and promoters to save, rejuvenate, and eventually acquire the storied venue. In 2003, under the name “Save Merriweather,” a handful of friends in their mid-20s organized a grassroots campaign that blossomed into a community movement to preserve the venue. Ultimately, this effort led to a comprehensive renovation of the venue and a transfer of its ownership to the nonprofit Merriweather Arts and Culture Center, helmed by Ian Kennedy, one of the movement’s founders. Not only has the venue been physically re-made under MACC’s ownership, but it has also become a hub of community, culture, and civic life—a callback to the vision of Merriweather’s creation in 1967 and an appropriate role for a venue that sits in the heart of Columbia, Maryland’s thriving urban core.” – Source Merriweather Arts & Culture Center

When Ian Kennedy, co-founder of Save Merriweather and Executive Director of the Merriweather Arts and Culture Center, asked us to brew a special beer to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of Save Merriweather, we jumped at the opportunity. Merriweather Post Pavilion has been the site of some of our most cherished summer memories since we were teenagers attending our first live concerts. Hanging in the old lots, relaxing on a blanket on the lawn, or holding our spot in the pit for hours before the headliner, MPP holds a very special place in our hearts. We couldn’t imagine a summer in Maryland without shows at MPP.

Forever Merriweather Summer Lager continues our dive into high-hopped lagers. Somewhere between a light crispy pils and an IPA, Forever Merriweather delivers big summer refreshment with a crisp body and a full hop flavor profile. Featuring the bright, colorful art of our good friend Nate Gonzalez, the label depicts the glory of the iconic architecture of the Frank Ghery-designed pavilion. Paired with the sounds of your favorite musical artist, Forever Merriweather goes down smooth on a perfect summer night at MPP. Available for a limited time at MPP & at the brewery in 4-packs to-go.
