#11 Craft beer from Palestine

In part one of a special ‘On the road’ broadcast of the Brewers Journal
podcast, we were at Jerusalem’s Shapiro brewery. In part two, host Velo
Mitrovich of Reby Media will be taking you to Taybeth Brewing Company in
Palestine.

If you were a bird with strong wings, you could fly between the two
breweries in about 10 to 15 minutes.

However, in this highly polarized part of the world, some days even a
bird would find the journey hard.

What you will be able to take away from this show is a truly
inspirational story as general director Nadine Khoury talks about Taybeth,
brewing beer in a Muslim country, and doing the world’s most complicated dance
steps getting supplies in and beer out to 30 countries.

Joining in later will be his daughter Madees, who has the distinction of
being the only female brewer in the Middle East. And, throughout it all, we’ll
be sampling way too many beers.

“Don’t let your vision of Palestine be shaped by the news,” says Nadine.
“Come visit us and see for yourself.” He has a cold one waiting for you.
