===Introduction to %beer.r

This script serves two purposes.  It's educational component highlights
the <b>data is code</b> and <b>code is data</b> techniques native to
REBOL programming.

Secondly, it offers a very nice recipe for beer making.  It
even converts units of measure from Imperial to metric.

---Still need to read.

Like many scripts in the <b>rebol.org</b> library, this code needs
to be read from source for the full effect.  The instructions are
not included in the output, only the metric measured ingredients.

===Using %beer.r

Simple.

  >>do %beer.r

or

  >>do http://www.rebol.org/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/rebol/download-a-script.r?script-name=beer.r

but all this shows is the ingredient list in metric.

For cooking instructions, after the <b>do</b> you can

  >>print Instructions

for details on the actual brewing.
