My favourite local summer refreshment

With apologies to Jane Austen, "It is truth universally acknowledged that a hot summer day puts a person in need of a refreshing drink."

The best microbrew in Jerusalem is Taybeh, made in Palestine. 




Taybeh is by far the best brew in town, but you cannot get it everywhere. A discerning liquor store (the one on Agrippas across from the market) sells it for NIS 11 a bottle (it was 10 until the VAT went up in June); it's not a cheap drink, but well worth the price. It is also available on tap at one bar in West Jerusalem.
