Today I review the last Israeli beer. It's called Nesher Malt and to find out the twist I've been talking about in the last two episodes you'll need to see the review for yourself.

I forgot to rate the beer on the video... Probably not the first and not the last time.

I'll have another one but maybe not right away...

Goldstar (#40)

Happy Anniversary to me:) This is the 100th post on Girl Likes Beer. And also the 40th beer reviewed on the blog. I want to take this opportunity to thank you guys for your support. There are more beers coming. Stay tuned!

In the meantime I want to show an Israeli beer called Goldstar. I brought it with me from my trip to Jordan and Israel. And if I am not mistaken it is the most distanced (far away from home) beer I have ever reviewed.

You might also remember the funny ad campaign this beer had a few months ago.

Let's look at the review shall we...
