Seasonal Beers
I'm brewing a Smashing Pumpkin Ale right now, I know, I know...it was a request for Carol's Holiday office party. I'm enjoying the last of my Fresh Squished as I brew. What beers do you enjoy at the change of season? I seem to have trouble planning enough in advance to be ready for the weather.
How did the pumpkin beer come out? My favorite of that genre are ones that taste like pumpkin pie. I also suffer from a lack of planning on brewing. It is getting colder here and I am wanting something with a higher ABV but didn't brew anything like that. Maybe next winter . . .
It was a recipe on brewersfriend.com. Tablespoon of pumpkin spice mix. Single mash and single hop (cluster). Real easy brew. I fermented one week and then went to a keg under pressure. Carol said they keep talking about how much they enjoyed it.
