Palestinian Brewery Launches Lager for Sale in UK

On September 10, Co-op will begin stocking Sun & Stone lager in 1,600 UK stores; the beer is named for the Middle East's warm climate and abundant limestone.
Co-Op members voted to end trade with Israeli businesses, prompting the retailer in June to stop sourcing from countries under its 'community-wide human rights abuses' policy, including Israel.
Brewed at zero profit to maximise returns for Taybeh, Brewgooder directs all sales profits to support Taybeh Brewing Co.'s local community and the Disasters Emergency Committee amidst export barriers and rising costs under occupation.
The move drew immediate political backlash from senior UK politicians and the Board of Deputies of British Jews, while proceeds from sales will support Taybeh's local community and the Disasters Emergency Committee .
The national launch is the largest since the Chernigivske release in 2022, with Brewgooder co-founder James Hughes initiating UK-brew collaboration after reading about Taybeh two years ago.
