Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a fluted tube pan (such as Bundt®).
- Combine brown sugar, butter, and stout beer in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir until butter is melted and brown sugar is dissolved, about 5 minutes. Add raisins, sultanas, and cherries. Simmer for 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature, about 15 minutes.
- Sift flour, mixed spice, and baking soda together in a large bowl. Stir in stout-fruit mixture. Add beaten eggs gradually, stirring until incorporated. Fold in orange zest. Spoon batter into the prepared pan.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 1/2 hours. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.

FRANCES O'BRIEN'S PORTER CAKE
I got this recipe on a trip to Ireland. I believe that Frances got the recipe from the newspaper, but I'm not sure. She was astonished that I would think there was anything exotic about porter cake, but I had never had anything like it in the US. At a minium I make this at Christmas every year. It's an almost-fruitcake!
