Mmmh, mmmh!
The Pyro

The Vintage Merryweather is a community-created headwear item for the Pyro, and was chosen by Valve to be released with the second wave of community-contributed content due to its outstanding quality. It appears as a black and gold Merryweather helmet, as used by 19th century fire brigades.

The description of this was written by ASpieboy for the Hat Describing Contest, and was slightly modified by Valve.

  • The Merryweather was originally submitted as the "Vintage Pyrolean" (a play on the Vintage Tyrolean's name) and is labeled "pyrolean" in the game files.
  • Initially, the Vintage Merryweather was entirely gold, but the author later changed it to its current state.
