Parti-Tyme Porter

This was a variation of a recipe from the dude that got me started in brewing. It's his "Family Time Porter" that I beefed up a bit. It was actually my first parti-gyle brew (hence the name). The porter was from the first runnings and I made an APA from the second runnings, which turned out to be rather undrinkable. Anyway, the porter ended up being a hit. Everyone who has tasted it has said it's my best brew yet. It's not quite hoppy enough for my taste but I do enjoy it.
I didn't use a secondary for this one, just a month in the fermenter then straight to the bottle.
It pours with a pretty good head but it quickly goes away with minimal lacing. Probably would have had better mouthfeel if I would have used some flaked oats like I have with my other stouts.
With the big grain bill it clocks in at a whopping 7.4% ABV. Now that is party time!
