I’ve had beer from this brewery! I remember it very distinctly. It was in Jerusalem over 20 years ago. The publican explained how it was smuggled through all the checkpoints designed to block Palestinian businesses from selling in Israel. Economic starvation was the policy of the time.
The beer was very good, but I’m surprised they survived. I’m happy for them. If she can do it, I think we need to stop listening to our locals whine about how hard business is!

I have seen Taybeh beers on the supermarket racks about Israel. So best of luck to her.
