St Peter's is an English import in that cool green 16oz bottle, right? I've tried everything they make (except the porter), and every single beer I've had from them has been skunked. Let me know how this clone works out--I bet that unskunked this beer tastes totally awesome.

Yeah, I'd like a clone of St. Peter's porter too. I bought it for the cool bottle, and was surprised with a great beer.

Well, add me to the "me too" chorus. I bought a couple of bottles from Total Wine & Beverage near me, and it's one of the best porters I've ever had!
Word of warning, though - I bought it for the cool bottle, too, and that label is a witch to remove. Had to resort to Goof-Off.

skunking seems to typically occur with beers in bottles that are not brown...i.e. green, clear, etc...literally when you open the bottle it has a bit of a skunky smell and taste...i'm from appalachia so the smell of a skunk is easily recognizeable (haha)...the skunkiness isn't desirable obviously...i've had skunked beers from companies such as heineken, new castle, etc...although those beers aren't always skunked...their bottles make them susceptible due to the abilty of sunlight to enter their green and clear bottles, respectively...

I think I might have found a ProMash recipe, but for some reason I can't get it to load into my demo version. If you have ProMash I can forward the file to you and you can see if it works. And then of course if it does, we'll be brewin'.

Pumbaa,
Thanks alot! When I am able to try this out I will let you guys know how it goes. It might not be for a month or so though because I have a couple brews lined up.
idkid,
Sorry I never noticed that you responded to me. I will PM you my email address and I will compare the recipe that Pumbaa found and yours.
Cheers,
Nathan

Just a heads up to you and other fellow homebrewers: When posting your email address on a public website, it is best to spell it (example: raiderwattitude AT tx DOT rr DOT com). Spam bots crawl the internet for posted email addresses and will use it to send you junk mail. Spelling it out helps reduce this.

Yeah all grain, but you could sub amber DME in for the 2 row for an extract with steeping grains, just need to get the proportion figured out

Yeah, definitely keep us posted on the results, this is one excellent porter.
I came across another recipe for it, its pretty similar but its an extract version and has a bit less chocolate malt, also i wonder why they use the irish ale yeast instead of a london one...
