The word "HOFSHI" seems to be popular as the hebrew translation
of 'free as in speech', but I think when people hear "TOCHNA
HOFSHIT" they are likely to associate it with the price and not
necessarily think about the freedom.

In the sentence "KNISA HOFSHIT" it means free beer too.

(I don't have a better alternative though..)
