This is my attempt at cloning Surly Smoke which is a smoked and oak aged Baltic Porter. I just bottled it up and will update after it conditions. Drinking a sample from bottling bucket and it tastes mighty close.

Awesome, thanks for posting! I've got a dopplebock going right now that I'll rack to secondary in two weeks or so, so I'll have a yeast cake ready for this.

I don't have the equipment to do all-grain, though (6-gallon batch, yes). Normally, when I convert to extract, I use 3/4 as many pounds of LME for the 2 row, and then just steep the remaining grains, but 4 lbs. of smoked malt is probably a bit much. Any suggestions on how I could convert this tasty-looking recipe?

Was wondering what I was going to do with the 5 pounds of smoked malt I ordered, thinking I did not have any on hand, when I already had 4 pounds on hand. Planning on doing this in the next two weeks.
