Cold Day Porter

[BitterTed]

Before the crash, there was a thread about our favorite recipes. This is one of the recipes I mentioned in my post. It was inspired by the book" Old British Beers And How To Make Them". I love those historic Porters and this one came out just the way I had hoped it would. If you brew it, let me know how it came out for you and what changes you may have made. ( Oh, I put it in REAL numbers too!! )

That's quite a list of malts BT. I assume it's got quite a deep complex flavour

Looks awesome Ted. I'll remember this one and maybe brew it in the colder months

Yes, it is quite complex, but it, is delicious too!! Generally, I like to stick to simple recipes, but this one just seemed to get away from me and then I brewed it and oh my, did I like it!!
