In honor of Sam Adams Honey Porter: my first good beer from back in '93 or '94. ('Might not have been legal.)

My goal with this recipe is to match a typical Brown Porter style using S.A's less typical malt profile, and recreate a 20 year old memory by focusing on rich flavors with minimal roastiness.

Per S.A. website: Heather Honey, IBU 38, 5.5% ABV, SRM 50. Hops: Spalt Spalter, E.K. Goldings, Fuggles. Malt: S.A. 2-Row Pale Malt Blend, Munich 10, Caramel 60, Weyerman Carafa.

Substitutions as need based: Honey
