This will be my first foray into over 1.100 territory.
I'd prefer guidance from brewers who have actually made a huge porter, or larger ones at least. Is there anything you would tweak? My goals are to avoid cloying sweetness, have some body, dark chocolate, dark fruits, toffee, caramels. I'll likely be doing some bourbon soaked oak in at least 1/2 of this if not all. I'm planning on using WLP007, and had considered WY1450.
