- Source Notes:
- This beer was named Pile O' Dirt because of the ridiculous amount of dirt Crow Peak Brewing had to build their original brewery on to get them out of the flood plain. This porter is very dark in color with a nice tan head and complexity due to the variety of specialty malts used.
- Notes:
- Single infusion mash at 156 F for 60 minutes. 60 minute boil. Ferment at 63 F.
