We celebrate St. Patrick's Day with a Smoked Porter, which is a uniquely Irish-American beer style. In order to prepare for this beer, we start by asking Sam and Gerry Brooke over at Portland Coffee Roasting Co. to help us "smoke" the grains. They do this by burning a bunch of coffee beans in their roaster. We then add our grains to these beans and mix them together in a large pot! The smoke given off by the coffee beans is captured by the grains. We then mill those grains right into our mash-tun! The result is a dark, smokey brew with a delicious hint of coffee!
