So...
BrewDog, a Scotland-based "hipster brewery" - for want of a better phrase - have just "open-sourced" their entire recipe collection.
You can read more at https://www.brewdog.com/lowdown/blog/diy-dog.
It's not entirely clear what "licence" they're using but they say:
*"copy them, tear them to pieces, bastardise them, adapt them, but most of all, enjoy them. They are well travelled but with plenty of miles still left on the clock. Just remember to share your brews, and share your results. Sharing is caring."*
I guess "free as in beer" has a slightly different meaning now!

Well they definitely aren't adding either NC or ND, but they might be implying SA with all that sharing is caring stuff.
You could ask before migrating to wiki source, my guess is they are choosing CC-BY-SA

This is not the first time libre beer is made: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_Beer
Dear Richard
Free as in beer ..or paid as in PR !!!
This is exactly the sort of PR paid editing for which Wikimedia-UK (and the UK centric paid editing cabals) are notorious for.[1],[2],[3]
Do you seriously expect the community to believe that promoting a web-page which starts off with an investment pitch is all innocent and charitable ?

Ask them to clarify their license...? The PDF would be a great addition to Wikimedia Commons, if possible. However the inclusion of packaging diagrams in their PDF's recipes is likely to mean they dont want to release this PDF under generous terms, but instead this is a marketing gimmick only. If we can only get it without those packaging diagrams, that would still be good.

no, no this is not some magic moment of enlightenment.
similar sharing of beer recipes has occurred as long as beer has existed.
Even properly licensed shared beer brew recipes have been around for a *very* long time.
Even the US Whitehouse got in on the action

There are even companies that share their beer trademark
