Nice one fhalaw
So where can we try out 'Almaza' in Canada? (only here for the beer!)
SamirCanada - 8-22-2010 at 02:31 PM
thats a funny commercial.
btw, they break into a very popular traditional lebanese line dance which is called the Dabkeh.
John,
I believe we have some in Ottawa, If I remember its comparable to Heineken if you like that really hoppy taste.
However, you live very close to the Beau's brewery in Vankleek Hill. Now, they make a nice beer. I love their lagered Ale. It's quite nice.

I did try Beau's beer (in the fancy 'stoneware' bottle) some time ago Samir but did not repeat the experience as the cost was about 4X the cost of a
Heineken or equivalent. They brew nice beer nevertheless.
(I wonder how the 'Almaza' brew compares with the 'Stella' beer that was the popular (i.e. only) choice in my Cairo experience of the early
1960's?)
I must check with my expert beer drinking/home brewing sons if they have tried 'Almaza'.
The commercial is very amusing but how do the lyrics of the song - Yaba Yaba La - translate into English? Perhaps they defy any translation?!
