On this episode of Scran we are looking to the Middle East and its oldest microbrewery, Taybeh. Located in the West Bank, water only runs once a week and attacks are a constant threat. However, the only female brewmaster in the Middle East, Madees Khoury who runs Taybeh, says they are defying the odds and continuing to operate. Now Taybeh have joined forces with Glasgow-founded B-Corp, Brewgooder, to produce a new lager, Sun & Stone, as export restrictions make it virtually impossible to ship abroad. The beer is now on sale in 1600 Co-op stores nationwide.
Madees joins Rosalind to discuss the challenges her family brewery has been faced with in recent times as well as the partnership with Brewgooder. She also speaks to James Hughes, co-founder of Brewgooder who tells her more about this company who are trying to do some good in the world, and how the partnership came about.
