Codename pick of the week: Project Moca
Remember that Outlook Spaces feature that the Walking Cat unearthed a while back. Turns out, it’s still under development and now goes by the “Project Moca” codename. (Thanks to one of our fans from Portland, Oregon, for the codename tipoff.)
Beer pick of the week: Other Half All Together IPA
Other Half Brewing in Brooklyn has open sourced a beer recipe, hoping other brewers will make versions of their own.
