Last remaining FREE BEER version 1.0 by Superflex
Bid on eBay
FREE BEER is free in the truest sense of the word: it was created by applying modern free software/open source methods to a traditional real-world product: beer. Brewed to a Creative Commons licensed recipe by students at the Copenhagen IT University and artist collective Superflex, this is the last bottle of the first batch of version 1.0 Free Beer. In the words of the Brazilian Minister of Culture, Gilberto Gil: “It’s not just free beer, it’s good beer!”

18h - The Free Beer Intellectual Property Pub Quiz

Free Beer is an ‘open brand’ - all material associated with Free Beer, including the logo and recipe, is released under a Creative Commons licence, and can be used or modified by anybody.
The FB-IP-PQ is a set of classic pub quiz questions about music, food, pirates and the unjustifiable encroachment of intellectual property law on all areas of life for the benefit of corporate capital.

1 point for each correct answer unless otherwise stated.

The association between Germânia and FREE BEER meets one of the prime objectives of the project, since it builds an open business, which, starting from a real product, questions the copyright system, in relation to intellectual property.

The FREE BEER will also be featured in the exhibition by a series of machines – “Counter-game strategies”. In a game format, the machines, whose rules will be displayed next to them, simulate the fashion of the social economic system, with its production and distribution, competitiveness, collaboration, earnings and profit. These machines will be spread around the gallery and visitors will be able to handle them freely.

OPENING:: November 27th at 20h
PERIOD:: from November 28th to December 22nd, 2007.
CHAT WITH THE ARTISTS and RONAL LEMOS, and FREE BEER PUB QUIZ:: December 1st, from 4 to 8 p.m.
WORKSHOP “THE WOLRD OF BEER” WITH CILENE SAORIN and ARNALDO RIBEIRO:: December 15th from 2 to 5 p.m.
OPENING HOURS:: from Tuesday to Friday, from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. and on Saturdays from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Forms of Resistance.
Artists and the desire for social change from 1871 to the present.
From 22 September 2007 through to 6 January 2008. The exhibition Forms of Resistance reflects on art and life and departs from four historical moments: the French Commune in 1871, the Russian Revolution of 1917, May 1968 and our world after the Berlin Wall came down (1989).
Based on these benchmarks it includes works by Manet, Courbet, Lissitzky, Rodchenko, Malevich, Brigada Ramona Parra, Atelier Populaire, Tucuman Arde, Sherk, Haacke, Johannesson, General Idea, Leonard, Piper, Ressler and Superflex amongst others.

This summer a collaboration between SUPERFLEX and Cornwall’s St Austell Brewery will produce FREE BEER (version 3.2), launching at Tate St Ives, as part of the exhibition “social systems” organised by ProjectBase and taking place across the county.
The new Cornish FREE BEER will be brewed with Cornish spring water from the Brewery’s private well and created with premium Maris Otter barley, grown locally in Cornish fields.
Tate St Ives, Tate Britain, Tate Liverpool and Tate modern will have the new beer available for sale until September and will launch FREE BEER with a challenge to the ‘grey matter’ when ProjectBase hosts the FREE BEER Cornish International All-Comers Pub Quiz Challenge on Sunday 8 July at 7.30pm at Tate St Ives.
The beer will also be for sale in pubs, restaurants and hotels across Devon and Cornwall and at the St Austell Brewery Visitor Centre and online at www.staustellbreweryshop.co.uk

Roger Ryman, Head Brewer at St Austell Brewery Co Ltd and recently voted UK Brewer of the Year 2006 said, “St Austell Brewery are very excited about the ‘Free Beer’ concept. This allows us to share ideas with other brewers around the world, whilst imparting our unique local accent onto the brewing of the beer. FREE BEER from St Austell shares its malt and hop blend with other versions of the beer, but is uniquely brewed with Cornish spring water from our own well, whilst our premium Maris Otter barley is grown locally in Cornish fields. Added guaraná gives a final flourish to FREE BEER.”

Sara Black Director of ProjectBase and curator of the exhibition says, “The whole ProjectBase ethos centres around bringing new international artistic collaborations to Cornwall and widening the experience of contemporary art with new audiences. FREE BEER certainly achieves those aims and it’s been fantastic to work with Roger and the St Austell Brewery team who have been extremely open minded and committed. We’ve had the hard job of having to taste test the results and we’re looking forward to seeing drinkers getting the FREE BEER round in and experiencing contemporary art for the first time in their local pub!”

Executive Director of Tate St Ives, Mark Osterfield added, “Tate St Ives is delighted to be part of this interesting project which has given us a unique opportunity to work with ProjectBase, St Austell Brewery and Tate Catering, demonstrating how a work of art can engage diverse groups in new partnerships, and create a project which will extend beyond the gallery walls into people’s daily lives.”

St Austell Brewery

Founded in 1851, St Austell Brewery is known to be one of the oldest businesses in Cornwall and is one of only 32 Independently Family Owned Brewers in the UK. The company brews four regular cask ales: Tribute, Tinners, IPA and HSD and are most famous for Tribute which now accounts for over 50% of their production. Tribute was voted the South West’s favourite beer in two recent awards.

The company markets its real ales nationally which also includes two keg versions Cornish Cream and Duchy and the bottled beer range consists of HSD, Tribute, Admiral’s Ale and Clouded Yellow. The company is growing with total annual turnover in 2006 of £85 million. It owns 167 pubs and is the South West’s largest wholesale distributor of beer, wines and spirits, serving more than 2000 free trade accounts, from pubs, clubs, hotels and other licensed outlets in Cornwall, Devon, Somerset and Dorset.

Voted UK Brewer of the Year 2006 by the British Guild of Beer Writers, Roger Ryman has been Head Brewer at St Austell Brewery since 1999 and when he joined he was the UK’s youngest Head Brewer. Formerly of McClays Brewery, Roger moved from the most northerly family brewery to the most southerly.
