Beers

Tempo's main brands are Maccabee, Goldstar, and Nesher.

Maccabee (Hebrew: מכבי‎) is a 4.9% abv pale lager first brewed in 1968. It is distributed in Israel and is also marketed in the USA and Europe.

Goldstar (Hebrew: גולדסטאר‎) is also a 4.9% pale lager which has been produced since the 1950s. It is marketed as a "Dark Lager Beer" ("בירה לאגר כהה"), though is pale golden in appearance.[5] In January 2007, Tempo introduced the 4% Goldstar Light with a commercial starring Moshe Datz, from the Israeli duet Duo Datz. The beer is certified kosher by the Chief Rabbinate of Netanya, Israel.

Nesher Malt was the first commercial beer to be brewed in the modern State of Israel - it has been brewed since 1935. It is a non-alcoholic beer.

Soft drinks

Tempo produces juice-based drinks under the Jump brand, and Nesher, a non-alcoholic malt drink. It is also the local bottler of PepsiCo drinks.

Barkan Wine Cellars

In September 2004, Tempo acquired a 39% controlling interest in Barkan Wine Cellars, Israel's second largest winery, which also produces boutique Segal Wines, Keglevich vodka, and Stock 84 brandy.

Popular culture

Goldstar brand beer was referred to in the song "Tel Aviv" by Duran Duran from the 1981 album Duran Duran[6].
