Dark Inception is here! This Imperial Porter recipe was contributed by Marcus Baskerville of San Antonio’s Weathered Souls Brewing Co., and the leading force behind the Black Is Beautiful collaborative brewing project. It is one of the official homebrew recipes for Big Brew 2022, a beer with a thick body and lots of flavor! Additions of vanilla, cacao in the form of cacao chaff, and raspberry meld together with the base beer and create the perfect big beer that pairs well with luscious desserts. However, this beer is great by itself too, and is the perfect sipping beer. Brew this for Big Brew 2022, or anytime!
