Mr. Potter's Porter
I love porter! I also am currently going to school in england where
the wonderful brew comes from. However, it's very difficult to
find nowadays so I decided to make it myself. I talked to the milton
brewery head brewer in cambridge england and these are the traditional
ingredients used in a porter. Enjoy!
