There's a brewery in Armenia called Kilikia. It's named after the
Armenian kingdom that bordered the Mediterranean Sea during the High Middle Ages. In English, we know that area as Cilicia -- the region that the apostle Paul came from
(Acts 21:39).

It has positive connotations in Armenia because it's a reminder of how large an area the Armenian people used to occupy. As you can imagine, the Turks do not like it -- and for the same reason.
