I decided to brew a sessionable porter about a month ago using some leftover ingredients I had laying around. I just pulled my first pint today and can honestly say it is one of the best beers I have ever brewed. It finished fermenting at 1.023 leaving me with a 4.2% beer, so I hit the mark for a sessionable beer.
