Description
Our brewery was located in Uckfield, East Sussex and we had a Oban 10BBL, 2-Vessel brewery with 400kg mashtun and custom-made copper/whirlpool. 4x fermentation vessels - 2x conical and 2x open-topped.
Our brewery is now (since May 2026) located in our bar “The Tasting Room” in the heart of Worthing, West Sussex. We have a 2.5BBL(400 litre), 2-Vessel brewery with 100kg mashtun. 2 open-topped fermentation vessels are currently located in the back room with 2 conical fermentation vessels hopefully coming soon and will be situated directly in the bar.
We created Merakai Brewing CO. on a foundation of Equality, Taste, and Community. From the people we collaborate with, the communities we support, and the people we employ.
We know there are like-minded people out there who are looking for something different, a change from the ‘norm’ and mainstream.

440ml can. Jet black colour with average, frothy to creamy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, tan head. Sweet-ish and roasty, chocolately, dark malty aroma, notes of coffee, cocoa, dark chocolate, wafer overtones; maybe a very weak touch of coconut while warming up. Taste is sweet-ish and roasty, chocolately, dark malty, slightly alcoholic, notes of coffee, dark chocolate, dark cocoa, a touch of wafers, Kahlúa; warming, alcoholic finish. Oily to viscous texture, smooth and soft, minimally cloying palate, medium to fine, mildly prickly carbonation. Rather monotonous and not overly intense, I don't really get any cococnut - so-so.
