Barry Kibbutz in Israel Launches Lager Brewed From Its Own Barley

The kibbutz people and the Milk & Honey distillery have produced a lager from 100% barley grown in the Barry fields. The beer is described as bright and wonderful.
Haim Yellin of Bari describes the fields as “the killing fields,” and says the brewing project brings something from them that is life, connecting a person to the land. The source does not give further detail on the fields’ history or on the kibbutz’s wider work, so this account is limited to the beer and the people behind it. Turning a place of loss toward something that sustains life carries the same weight as comfort in grief (2 Corinthians 1:3-4).
The lager is currently coming to market.
