Amid conflict and strife, a beer brews

Fascinating article here about a Palestinian brewer who perpetuates unity between Christians and Muslims through a love of beer. Here’s a quick passage:

“The malt comes from France and Belgium, the hops are Czech and Bavarian, but the beer is made in a hilltop Christian village in the heart of the West Bank from which it takes its name — Taybeh is Arabic for “delicious.”

It’s an unlikely place for a brewery. The grey tower of an army outpost stands guard over the main road into the village, one of more than 600 Israeli military checkpoints and roadblocks that dot the West Bank.”
