Dancing Camel Pub & Brewery

Dancing Camel is one of Israel’s original microbreweries, a place where people from all over the country have been going for years when they’d had enough of Goldstar and bland European imports and needed to satiate their craving for a full-flavored, hand-crafted brew.

Dancing Camel has all the micro-brew favorites, such as rich stouts, American and India pale Ales, wheat beers and others, as well as a variety of special creations inspired by Jewish and Israeli culture. The Golem, a long-standing favorite named after the undead monster of European Jewish myth,  is an iced version of the Dancing Camel IPA that comes in at a whopping 11% (plus) ABV while retaining its drinkable flavors. Gordon Beach Blond is a blond ale with a touch of typical Mediterranean flavors –mint and rosemary — made for drinking on the Tel Aviv beach while chowing down on salads and seafood, in between surfing and volleyball sessions, of course. Other specialties include the chili-infused Leche Del Diablo wheat beer and the 613 pomegranate ale brewed in honor of the Jewish New Year, among many other regular and seasonal brews.
