Beer Style: Robust Porter  (12B)
Recipe Type: all-grain
Yield: 5 US gallons

Robust Porter
Beer Color

Description:

Not bad at pitching. Pitched Noty at 75F at about 5:30 p.m. 1-24-13. tested at 1.010 on day seven. Kegged 2-1-13. First draw on 2-13-13. Tasty and according to style. A thin little bite at the end may go with another week in the keg. Bourbon very mild as is vanilla, but both do their part. I'd give it four stars and rate it at about a 38.

We added an extra 1/2 oz of Chinook hops at 10 minutes left in the boil. We also added the bourbon and 2 vanilla beans when we transferred to the secondary fermenter. Primed with 2/3c of dark brown sugar and 1/3c of priming sugar. This really seemed to help mellow the bourbon a bit and accent the vanilla and maltiness of this beer. Over all, a great recipe, We will definitely make this one again and again.
