I was lucky enough to get out to Pumping Station One the hacker space of Chicago early this summer.

The space was still in it’s infancy but it was starting to come together, and most importantly people were there and they were making things and talking and sharing ideas about making things.

I attended a brew course in which some of the members of P S one were working out what the their official brew should be, the only consensus was that the brand if there becomes one, should include XKCD’s Ballmer Peak below:

Hey Pumping Station One how is that brew coming?
Delicious and gone already! Working on our next batch.
You missed it! It was an IPA, decent but a bit sour, and we have a new brew-master by the looks of things.
Thanks for the article <3
A new brew-master? Please explain
