There is and English section .

In brief , a bunch of students took a classic beer recipe , modified it , and let the recipe out under a creative commons licence . So now you have Free Beer , in the tradition of Free Software . I don't know what to really make of this , but on the whole , this strikes me as a good thing .
 
Personally I see the recipe as a bad idea. Beer + guarana = energetic drunkeness. Not too bad if it's a small gathering of friends wanting to have an all night session of pool, video gaming, orgy, bonfire banter, etc...but as as a drink of choice for a large party or night on the town, the last thing anyone wants is the "violent when drunk" types to be full of beans as well (if you think they're bad on rum, watch 'em mix it with Red Bull).
