Portland Open Sources Gigabit IPA - Taplister » Blog Archive
Portlanders are serious about three things: Beer, technology and our community. To continue to let Google know we are the right choice for their Google Fiber to home network, we decided to open source the Gigabit IPA recipe that Hopworks created. This will allow other cities the opportunity to brew this fine beer. The code for the beer or recipe is available on Google’s open source code website and below.

Gigabit IPA, an open source IPA - Project Hosting on Google Code
When Google invited America to get inspired by gigabit fiber technology, Portland’s innovative geek and brewer communities responded by creating a fresh and edgy organic beer to answer Google’s call. Portland Gigabit IPA offers a massive NW hop aroma, rich citrus and pine accents aggressively balanced with clear malt caramel flavor, and a deep, clean, satisfying finish. We believe in the opportunity offered by gigabit fiber networks for Portland and for communities everywhere. We’re “opening the source code” so you can home brew a Gigabit IPA all your own. (It’s fiber-to-the-home, right?) Sam Adams • Mayor, City of Portland, Oregon

The Making Of Gigabit IPA: An Interview With Christian Ettinger :: Stumptown Magazine
Every stupid city in America is devising some dumb scheme to lure Google and its superfast fiber optic network there. Towns are renaming themselves Google, throwing untold subsidies at the project and so on. As for Portland, it’s bidding for the mega-network the only way it knows how: having one of the city’s top local brewers make Google its own beer, then shipping a keg or two to the company and seeing what happens. It’s a scheme, sure. But it’s also completely brilliant. Will it help lure Google to Stumptown? Who knows. But hey, more beer! Can’t go wrong there!
