Time to dig out the Gordon Lightfoot album and pour yourself one of these in memory of the 29 men lost on this day in 1975

so anyways....

Made a 5.5g batch of this again the other day.

I'd like to second my recommendation for subbing out the US Pale for Marris Otter on this. Where as it won't get you closer to an EF clone, it will get you closer to a much tastier porter, ( which is saying a lot, as EF is one of my favorite porters.),.

This last batch I FWH'ed with 1/4 oz of homegrown Magnums, subbed the Pale malt for MO, added 10oz's of Aromatic Malt, ( adjusted the IBU's to compensate), did a 120min mash, and used dry S-04. Primary @ 64f. Other than that, everything was as per the OG recipe.

This promises to be quite the beverage.

I'm brewing my fourth(? at least, I'm starting to lose count) batch of your recipe and the only issue I have with this beer is that it keeps me from making other porters and stouts!!!! Thanks for this awesome recipe. It's a crowd favorite and, even though the last batch of it was the newest keg in my fridge, it was the first one emptied.

BTW, once I forgot to buy Special B so had to try to correct for it. It still made a good porter but not nearly as smooth and complex.
