At the time of writing, Elixir 1.5.0 was the latest. Unfortunately, homebrew only has the latest version of Elixir. If the latest is not 1.5.0 then please install Elixir from source

$ brew install elixir

This should also install erlang OTP for you.

brew should also star the postgre service automaticaly
