Started out planning a Scottish 80/- based on Jamil's recipe using US-05 yeast. After mashing in I opened the fridge to find out I only had S-04, not exactly the clean yeast I was looking for. However the recipe was not far off from several English Ales. I still wanted to brew a malty beer so I decided on a Southern English Brown.

<edit> found it fit the Brown Porter category a little closer. Its probably going to end up sweet given the high mash temp and low attenuating yeast. Other than the yeast mixup the brew day went great.
