Harry Porter V2 (winter 2023)

Same recipe as last year except I added another pound of roasted coconut and replaced the vanilla with chicory in hopes of getting a hint of coffee flavor but no caffeine. Dryer than the first version but also rounder, with coffee-like tones and a nice coconut presence. Mission accomplished, this 5.64% ABV beer is a real winter treat. Cheers!

I AM a huge fan of dark beers, and I'd treat Harry Porter like a backyard pool - strip down naked and jump right in! Looks awesome!

Not sure how tall/big you are but you probably wouldn't fit in my 5 gallons refurbished Pepsi keg!!

Not that I feel the need to prove anything but I'm curious🤔 Is this something that is hard to find in your area? They are quite available and if you are patient enough you can get them at a very reasonable price around here...

Years ago I brought 5 of them pepsi kegs back from Miami on a trip visiting a shit ton of members. The kegs are called cornies I gave them to another member and he becomes Floridas top home brewer within a year, gets a job at Rapp then is offered a job at Perfect Plan in Pensacola. He is still there as head brewer and I dont get to see my buddy anymore:cry: Thanks for bringing up pepsi kegs:rofl:

I haven't brewed in a while... I am in the process of finishing my new brew space (moving from the garage to the basement). However, I am currently drinking a beer brewed 5 years ago, a season to which I added a Brettanomyces mix once the primary fermentation was complete and which I have allowed to age (read almost completely forgotten about!) ever since. The result is surprisingly good with a nice balance of apple, leather and other usual farmhouse flavors. The only drawback is the lack of fuzz but it's a minor flaw since the taste is there!
