I opened the first bottle of the porter I brewed at the beginning of December last night. It was excellent! The last few beers I brewed (Mocha Porter and Stout) seemed too sweet to me and I was pretty disappointed with them. The reviews from friends and family were excellent and I ended up giving most of those beers away. Anyway, it was a little of a relief that this beer turned out so well.

My Midwinter’s Porter is just about ready to go into the keg. I cleaned the keg out yesterday, so I’m just about ready to go. Good stuff!
