Oktoberfest, West Bank style
Ramallah-adjacent village of Taybeh hosts local version of famed Bavarian beer festival
Residents of the Christian Palestinian village of Taybeh, a West Bank community located 7.5 miles northeast of the Ramallah, hosted their own version of Oktoberfest Saturday.
The West Bank version of the famed, 200-years-old Bavarian festival is an annual occurrence in Taybeh and the hundreds of visitors – both from the West Bank and around the world – can sample, aside from the obligatory pint, a large variety of local dishes and enjoy various shows and attractions, such as plays and dance performances.

Nadim Huri, founder and owner of the Taybeh brewery, has been manufacturing beer since 1994. Not forgetting his Muslim cliental, Huri also brews non-alcoholic beer. "My focus in the local market," he said.
The brewery, he added, also exports beer to Japan and Israel.
