Meerts was an integral part of Faro production in the mid 1800s, with Faro was described as a 50/50 blend of Lambic and Meerts. This blending was usually done after fermentation, but there is also mention of some brewers blending before fermentation<ref name='Lacambre 1851'/>. Although modern Faro is almost always only produced from Lambic, the [[Tilquin Faro|Faro]] produced by [[Gueuzerie Tilquin]] is a 50/50 blend of Lambic and Meerts.
