New Brew - Porter

With the coming to holidays, I decided to start a new Brew. Last time it was Ginger Beer which was OK, oddly had a larger then expected content of Alcohol.

So this time I wanted to try something a bit different. I came by chance across Porter, which comes from the 1700 and is a mix of old Ale, modern Ale and a mild Ale. The first to be engineered for the public's taste. Its a dark ruby colour.

Its going so far a lot better then the last batch of ginger beer. The air lock is very active. Although temp is a bit low at 18C (Should be about 19-26C!). I should have looked at the weather forecast. Well at least believed in it...

A few more days till I can bottle, then 2 weeks in bottles before drinking.
