Taybeh (Updated)
By MIFTAH
July 31, 2003
The town of Taybeh boasts two main things: (1) It is the only
village in Palestine that is completely inhabited by Christians,
and (2) It is the home to delicious Taybeh beer! About 1,500 residents live in Taybeh, all of them either Roman
Catholic, Greek Orthodox, or Greek Catholic. The village of Taybeh
was originally called Ephraim, and is thought to be the city to
which Jesus came with his disciples before his crucifixion. "Jesus
therefore walked no more openly among the Jews; but went thence
unto a country near the wilderness, into a city called Ephraim"
(John 11:54). According to stories, a visit by the Islamic leader
Salahdin was responsible for the name change. Apparently he found
the people there to be “good and kind” – in Arabic, “taybeen” –
and the name stuck, to become “Taybeh.” As for the beer, also named Taybeh, it is produced in a factory
in the town and welcomes visitors for a tour. Owned by Nadim
Khoury, who returned to Palestine after living for almost 20 years
in Boston, Taybeh Beer, the first microbrewery in the Middle East,
is now eight years old. Like many other exiled Palestinians,
Khoury returned after the Olso accords to participate in the
strengthening of the Palestinian economy. Together with his
brother and father, Khoury put his beer recipe to the test. The
result is a light, full-bodied beer, made according to the German
purity law, and utilizing ingredients from around the world: malt
from Belguim, hops from Bavaria, yeast from England, brown bottles
from Portugal, fresh spring water from a nearby spring in Ein
Samia, and labels produced in Ramallah.
