So it is getting close to fall so it is fall beer time... (yes this is my first line in my first post. I am proud having such a good start).
So my friends and I are going to split 4 batches of pumpkin beers. Hopefully, 2 will be porters, 2 will be ales. What do you think about making one of the pumpkin ales into a pumpkin lager?
The first one is not a pumpkin beer at all but will be a Betternut Squash Beer since I can not find pumpkin. Even canned pumpkin.
So I am planning a version of the Thunderstruck Pumpkin Ale but instead of pumpkins, I am using 6 Butternut Squashes. I have scaled the recipe to 6.5 gallons since I want at least 5 gallons when done.
Below are pictures of the squash cooking. I am steaming some and baking some in the oven. I will try to post as the batch progresses. Hopefully the images work.
