Our Story
Great Beer for Hardworking Humans
Long days, late nights, on your feet, or at the desk. Pushing through in the sweltering heat or bitter cold. Up at the crack of dawn to do it all over again. Sound familiar? This is the life we choose to live and the life we lead. Our desire to give it our all never waivers.
We are hardworking humans who enjoy the fruits of our labour. Have a cold one with us.
Come on, you’ve earned it.
And so did we!

Who We Are
Brad and Helen Hoffman own and operate 4th Meridian Brewing Co., which was founded in 2016 out of a mutual love of beer, family, friends, and community. The couple started brewing in a shop on the outskirts of Lloydminster and served their first brew to family and friends in the fall of 2016.
Quickly outgrowing the shop setup, 4th Meridian decided to open a taproom in Lloydminster. Finding the perfect location—on the 4th Meridian.
The Taproom opened to the public in 2017 and rapidly became a community hangout where everyone – and their dog, was welcome. Hosting open mic nights, yoga sessions, community markets and even weddings, the Border City has truly embraced 4th Meridian.
With the company’s growth came their family’s growth; Brad & Helen welcomed two children, Julia & Eric, who are often found helping their parents.
In 2023, 4th Meridian expanded its operations and acquired one of Alberta’s first craft brands, Ribstone Creek Brewery. With the acquisition, the pair invested further into the community by moving to a larger space—three bays down from their first location (super easy to find if you haven’t been in a while).
The new location allowed 4th Meridian Brewing Co. to brew larger batches in-house and welcome more guests. Celebrating its grand re-opening in the early summer of 2024, 4th Meridian Brewing Co. continued the tradition, hosting a community vendors market, live music, and welcoming guests to its new back patio area.
The new Taproom is open at Unit 9, 2632 50 Avenue, Lloydminster. Nestled on the border of Alberta and Saskatchewan…
