We found ourselves at a crossroads, all of us: Gig, Ann, Kate, and Molly, the Leadbetters. Gig and Ann were firefighters, nomads, and adventurers who climbed, skied, rafted, and hiked in landscapes all over the globe. Eventually they became college professors and had two beautiful daughters who they raised in Colorado. Kate and Molly wandered their way to Idaho attending The College of Idaho becoming ‘yotes for life, after graduation they followed in their parents’ footsteps to become wildland firefighters, lovers of nature, nomads, and adventurers. Eventually the firefighter daughters and the college professor parents were at a crossroads at the same time. Gig the homebrewer, Ann the bored-of-grading-papers, Kate the artist/entrepreneur, and Molly searching for a muse, each realized they could use a new direction. Where the inspiration to start a c***ry came from is unclear: maybe from the undifferentiated cosmos, maybe from pure desire, maybe an unbounded love of good drinks, maybe from aimless web-surfing. The Leadbetters took it up with passion and Meriwether C***r was born. We brew our c***r with the same zeal we brought to scampering around outside. Every bottle, every can, and every keg will be handmade, hand bottled, and hand labeled, so be assured that every one of our products has been handled by one of us, like, at least, a ton of times. C***r has a very rich heritage in the United States, by the eighteenth century Americans in New England were brewing 300,000 gallons of c***r a year but by the end of Prohibition, hard c***r had almost vanished. We brew our c***r from apples grown in the Northwest, it is naturally gluten-free, making it essentially guilt free, right? Our c***r isn’t sweet enough to give you flashbacks from freshmen year of college, but just sweet enough to transport you to crisp fall days and ch*****ne powder. We’re brewing up many different kinds of c***rs, including semi-sweet, semi-dry, blackberry, cherry, plum, ginger, gin botanical, apple pie, apricot, and hopped. Do you like b**r? You should try our hopped c***r, it’s a delightful blend of c***r and the same hops you taste in your favorite IPA without that pesky gluten messing with your insides. Don’t like apples? Well… you should still give c***r a try, it’s really delicious, trust us, we’ve tried a lot of it.
