I have been reading about smoked porters and would be interested in trying one. At this point, I do not have the knowledge or equipment to do a full-grain which it appears would be required to homebrew a smoked porter.
Thanks!
Thanks!

Stone makes a smoked portert that I prefer, it's a lot more subtle. It uses a small amount of peated malt for its flavor and aroma. They are both incredible beers, but the Alaskan beer needs a bit of aging, I think. I have a couple bottles of the 2005 vintage that I need to sample.
