Barbican (drink)

Barbican is a popular non-alcoholic malt beverage produced by Aujan Industries. Originating from Saudi Arabia, Barbican has gained popularity across the Middle East and is now available in over 20 countries worldwide.

History

Barbican was first introduced in the 1980s by Aujan Industries, a leading beverage company in the Middle East. The drink was created as a non-alcoholic alternative to beer, catering to the region's predominantly Muslim population who abstain from alcohol due to religious beliefs.

Production

Barbican is a malt beverage, meaning it is brewed in a similar manner to beer. The process involves the fermentation of barley, water, and yeast. However, unlike beer, the fermentation process is halted before any significant alcohol is produced, resulting in a non-alcoholic beverage.

Varieties

Barbican comes in a variety of flavors, including lemon, apple, raspberry, and strawberry. Each flavor offers a unique taste, catering to a wide range of consumer preferences.

Popularity

Barbican's popularity has grown significantly since its introduction. It is now a common beverage choice in many Middle Eastern countries, including the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, and Qatar. The drink's non-alcoholic nature and variety of flavors have contributed to its widespread appeal.
