So im thinking about making a smoked pumpkin ale. Gonna try for a light smoke, just enough to remind you of a wood fire in the fall.
- 7.5 lbs. Rahr 2-row pale
- 2.5 lbs. German Munich Malt
- .5 lbs. Briess Caramel 80
- .25 lbs. Briess Caramel 60
~ 8 lbs roasted pumpkin
mash @153 for 1 hour
1 oz cluster @60 min
1 tsp pie spices @ flame out
wyeast 1056, 2-3 weeks primary, 2-3 weeks secondary, then keg
now im pretty confident on the beer, not how the smoke flavor will meld with pumpkin pie flavor as this will be my first smoked beer. So anyone who has experience or ideas on how it might go id like appreciate any advice. if anyone has done this and it turned out this is a horrible combo id def like to know!
Thanks!
