I am drinking one of these now. One of my favorite Pumpkin beers, but at $12.99 a six, it's killer. This recipe looks intriguing. I may have to brew this up just in time for the fall. I just bottled my Pumking clone but it wouldn't hurt to have 5 more gallons of my other favorite pumpkin beer.

I've used the Graham Cracker Extra from Capella on my last years batch. I honestly did not taste it after two months had passed. I bottled on Saturday this years batch and will wait at least four weeks to taste it. Cannondale's recipe is not an exact clone, but it's the closest I've ever...

In that Pumking in less than two minutes video, it looks like he is just guestimating how much puree to throw in there. It also looks like it's very watery and uncooked. Anyone else see that?

I'm getting ready to bottle Cannondale's recipe on Saturday. I will post with pictures and tasting notes.

To all who brewed this beer - Just out of curiosity. Yeast Starter?

Me and my buddy just brewed up two batches of Cannondale's recipe. One batch was ten gallons and the other five. We followed everything and got a gravity reading of 1.095 for the ten gallon, and 1.091 for the five gallon.

I just got back from Wegman's. I will be brewing 15 gallons of this on Saturday and will update.

Here is a quick update. I have two one gallon test batches in the works. However, I tweaked both recipes slightly. The first batch has one more week in the secondary which is dry hopped with Amarillo and two real apricots that were milled. The next batch I used Crystal 80 instead of 60. The...

I'm drinking a Dogfish Aprihop right now and it is so good! I really would love to get something exactly tasting like this.

The taste is very similar. The color as you can see is not close. I will try this again soon with fresh apricots and BIAB.

I bottled this on Sunday. In three weeks or so I will post a side by side. I have an Aprihop saved for the occasion.

Getting ready to BIAB the Summer Solstice Saturday. I will try to keep you all posted.

As promised, here are two photos. It is still moving and the temperature is 70°. Same beer, one photo without the flash. http://imgur.com/LuLin http://imgur.com/tLCyc

Just did a BIAB using the All grain recipe from the original post. Mashed at around 158 for minutes and followed the hop schedule. Added Irish Moss at 15 minutes. Gravity was 1.038 if I read it correctly. It is currently in a water bath at 60 degrees. I hope it stays around that temp.

Just moved this brew to the secondary, added 2lbs of apricot puree, 2oz Citra because my LHBS was out of Amarillo and took a reading. 1.012 Not that far off for missing my temperature by ten degrees. I will keep you all posted and maybe post a photo in a few.

I brewed this last night. Everything that could have went wrong did. This was my first attempt at a PM. Missed my target of 151*. Only got to 141. I checked on it this morning and it is at 67* in my basement not really doing a whole lot yet. I will keep you posted.

I will be attempting a partial mash within the week. First PM I will try.

I will probably soak two split vanilla beans in 4 oz of vodka. I had success with this method on the Southern Tier Pumpking clone.

I'm going to attempt the partial mash recipe next Friday. I will let you know how this goes. The one corner of my basement is currently 61*.
