Israel and The Palestinian Territories Real Food Adventure<\/a>. It needs to be an attention-grabbing cellar door expertise. Taybeh is generally identified for its lagers, however there are about 10 totally different beers on rotation. The brewery will get its malt from France and Belgium, and its hops from Bavaria and the Czech Republic, however the spring water, yeast and different flavours are all grown proper right here in Palestine.<\/p>\n\u201cWe just started working with sour beers, introducing them to Palestinian consumers,\u201d Madees says excitedly. \u201cPeople seem to like them! Especially the younger generations. But we\u2019re always trying new things. We\u2019ve got a dark lager, an amber ale, and a white, Belgian-style beer. We\u2019ve even tried Arabic coffee beer, beer with watermelon, and a lemon gose from my grandmother\u2019s lemon tree.\u201d<\/p>\n
A brand new chapter is brewing<\/h2>\n
Madees says a part of the problem with Taybeh \u2013 as if working a profitable export enterprise within the West Bank wasn\u2019t difficult sufficient \u2013 is being the primary (and, so far as she is aware of, solely) feminine brewer within the Middle East.<\/p>\n
\u201cWomen in the beer industry have it difficult all over the world,\u201d she says, \u201cbut here it does feel especially hard. Being in a Muslim-dominated country, a male-dominated country, even after 16 years in the business I still get new people just ignoring my presence in the room. I have to remind them that yes, I\u2019m here, you can discuss business with me. That man isn\u2019t the manager.\u201d<\/p>\n
Madees was younger when she first began working at Taybeh \u2013 solely 21. She says the final 16 years have principally been about proving herself, and proving that Palestine\u2019s story shouldn\u2019t be restricted to 30-second information bites, or smoke-shrouded footage of conflict and battle. There are individuals right here, ladies right here, doing extraordinary issues.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy grandfather used to say, if you can make it happen here, you can make it happen anywhere,\u201d she says. \u201cI\u2019ve wanted to give up many times: exporting abroad, dealing with drivers and the Israelis, getting permits, making everything happen on time. But after every challenge, I get stronger, every single time. You can throw anything in my way now. I can take over the world. I\u2019m bulletproof.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
