Lebanon (Lebanese pronunciation), officially known as the Lebanese Republic (Lebanese pronunciation), is a sovereign state in Western Asia.

It is bordered by Syria to the north and east and Israel to the south, while Cyprus is west across the Mediterranean Sea.

Lebanon's location at the crossroads of the Mediterranean Basin and the Arabian hinterland facilitated its rich history and shaped a cultural identity of religious and ethnic diversity.

At just 10,452 km2 (4,036 sq.

mi), it is the smallest recognized country on the entire mainland Asian continent.

Beer is one of the oldest and most widely consumed alcoholic drinks in the world, and the third most popular drink overall after water and tea.

Beer is brewed from cereal grains—most commonly from malted barley, though wheat, maize (corn), and rice are also used.

During the brewing process, fermentation of the starch sugars in the wort produces ethanol and carbonation in the resulting beer.

Most modern beer is brewed with hops, which add bitterness and other flavours and act as a natural preservative and stabilizing agent.

Other flavouring agents such as gruit, herbs, or fruits may be included or used instead of hops.

In commercial brewing, the natural carbonation effect is often removed during processing and replaced with forced carbonation.

Heineken International is a group which owns a worldwide portfolio of over 170 beer brands, mainly pale lager, though some other beer styles are produced.

As of 2006, Heineken owns over 125 breweries in more than 70 countries and employs approximately 57,557 people.
