HI,
I'm not a big porter drinker, and only brew them 1-2x a year when the weather gets cold and my wife starts asking for them. I'm trying to put together a nice base porter which I'll add some winter type spices (vanilla cinnamon & chocolate). Please let me know if I'm in the right neighborhood. I have brewed Denny Conn's BVIP a couple of times and really enjoyed it. I wanted to add more chocolate and some oats as well as lower the gravity for this year's porter.
