[QUOTE="adauria, post: 54980, member: 193"] I'm not smart enough to give you an answer you might "useful," or even "informed," but I am prideful enough to share my unfounded thoughts here. Meer linings are probably for folks who like briar pipes but want the smoking characteristics of meer bowls, i.e. a little drier, no ghosting, no need to build cake, and does not impart a flavor of its own (unlike briar). At the same time, you get a nice wide briar airway, no need to worry about how you hold or color the outside of the bowl of the pipe, and reduce concerns about fragility of an all-meer pipe. For me, I like both meer and briar, but generally keep them separate. But I see no reason why a meer lined briar pipe wouldn't produce a best of both worlds smoking experience for those who enjoy them. -Andrew [/QUOTE]
