Lone Tree Brewery ( Hebrew: מבשלת בירה העץ הבודד) is an Israeli kosher brewery located near the Israeli settlement of Kfar Etzion in the Gush Etzion bloc in the West Bank. [2] [3]
Lone Tree brewery, which began selling beer commercially in 2010, was founded in 2009 by Myriam and David Shire and Susan and Yochanan Levin. [4] The Shires originally lived in Glasgow, Scotland and moved to Gush Etzion in 1983; the Levins immigrated to the West Bank from Maryland, USA around 2006. [3] David Shire, a biologist and resident of nearby Neve Daniel, worked at the Hadassah Medical Center in Jerusalem and later as a landscaper before finally pursuing his dream of establishing a boutique brewery. [5]
Lone Tree brewery takes its name from the ancient oak tree that survived the Jordanian presence in Gush Etzion between 1949 and 1967 and that serves as a symbol of Gush Etzion. [2] [5] The same tree also inspired the company's logo. [6]
Lone Tree manufacturing facility is housed in a 50-square-meter building in the center of Gush Etzion. According to Susan Levin, it is a destination for visitors from Tel Aviv and Haifa as well as from abroad. [4]
Lone Tree brewery has a weekly output of 250–300 bottles, or 800–900 bottles per month. It produces between seven and eight varieties of beer, including an oatmeal stout, an India pale ale, a California common, a Piraat-style ale, and a pomegranate ale. [2] [3] [4] [6] [7] [8] As of 2011, Lone Tree's beers are available primarily in the Gush Etzion area and in Jerusalem. [5] They were featured at the BEERS conventions in Tel Aviv in 2011 and 2012, [9] [10] [11] and they were featured at the 2012 Mateh Yehuda beer festival. [12]
מי שעומד מאחורי היוזמה יוצאת הדופן הזו הוא דוד שייר, ביולוג סקוטי חביב בן 51 שעלה לארץ בשנות ה-80 והתיישב בהתנחלות נווה דניאל. שייר מאס בשלב מסוים בעבודתו בבית החולים "הדסה" בירושלים, והחליט ללכת בעקבות חלומו.
