“To tip or not to tip? If the answer is yes, then how much? And why is our attitude to rewarding good service changing? These are some of the questions Tim Marlow will be exploring in this weeks’ Culture Shock when he talks to UK’s leading travel writer Simon Calder and Mary Meehan, co-founder of the Minnesota -based firm Iconoculture which focuses on translating trends for top multinational companies. And there is a new type of ‘free’ beer from Denmark which anyone in the world can brew and improve.”

Lessig and FREE BEER on Danish National TV

“The danish art group Superflex, has used this almost limitless form of copyright, for the recipe and design of the beer FREE BEER. The first market version was released today, produced by the brewery Skands. But other breweries – Carlsberg, for example – are welcome to make their own version of the beer, as long as they credit Superflex and Skands on their bottles.

This is it! Right out of the tank..

Master brewer Birthe Skands describes 3.0 as a ”traditional, top fermented beer with a very high drinkability factor – defined as the desire to drink another glass or bottle. With heavier beer from Belgium, for example, you´ll drink only one glass which you´ll indulge in. With FREE BEER you´ll want to drink another one – so it´s actually thirst quenching. We also wanted a nice color, and ended up with a beautiful, light amber”
