Carakale was Jordan's first
microbrewery and its first production beer was a
blonde ale of the same name intended to serve as entry-level brew for the Jordanian domestic market, which was unacquainted with
craft beer culture. The brewery sold its first bottle in late 2013, was producing 40,000 bottles a month by mid-2014, and was available in most of the approximately 600 stores, bars, restaurants, and hotels that sell alcohol in Jordan by late 2017. Carakale has collaborating with several
US breweries, including the Arizona Wilderness Brewing Company, with which it made a
Dead Sea-salted and grapefruit-flavoured
Gose beer, "Dead Sea-rious", and the Against The Grain Brewery, with which it produced a
fig and
chamomile Pilsner and a
za'atar-spiced
Saison. ==References==
