Since 1995, Taybeh, the last remaining all-Christian village in the Holy Land, has been home to a brewery. Of course the locals drink it joyfully, as good Christians should. But that's not all. "Taybeh even had a nearby rabbi certify its product as kosher. Last year the brewery introduced a zero-alcohol brew for Muslims."
Says Madees Khouri, the Mideast's only woman brewer, "Taybeh beer is our way of struggling. This is our resistance to the occupation — just to make beer and make people happy."
Deo Gratias. I think I'm going to cry.

Where self-serving diplomats fail, beer may just succeed

Oh, it's beer, beer, beer that makes me want to cheer...
Yes! Or as Belloc wrote:
So we turned into that little house as in duty bound, seeing that it was five miles since we had last acknowledged the goodness of God in the drinking of ale, which is a kind of prayer, as it says in the motto:
"Laborare est orare sed potare clarior"
which signifies that work is noble, and prayer its equal, but that drinking good ale is a more renowned and glorious act than any other to which man can lend himself. And on this account it is that you have a God of Wine, and of various liquors sundry other Gods, that is, Imaginations of men or Demons, but in the matter of ale no need for symbol, only that it is King.
Finally! Jeez...after some BEGGING, we finally get a post about beer. Thanks, Sean.
I had some Black Toad today....tasty!
So, has anyone tried this beer? I mean, if I'm helping out my fellow Christians I ought to go and grab a six pack tonight.
Seconded!
