I brewed a beer, but don't know what style it is

[themanc84]

So I was going to brew a Belgian Pumpkin Dubbel but my local homebrew store did not have the yeast strain I wanted in stock (1214) so I completely changed my mind and went with Safale US-05

I cooked 4 1/2 lbs of pumpkin in the oven with brown sugar for one hour.

Partial Mash--One hour at 154-157 degrees

2 lbs 6-row
.75 lbs Special B
.5 Caramunich III
4 1/2 lbs Pumpkin

Boil- 60 minutes

60 min-- 3.3 lbs Golden Light LME and 1 oz Cascade
20 min-- 3.3 lbs Golden Light LME and 1 oz Cascade
5 min-- 16 oz Maple Syrup and 1 tsp Pumpkin Pie Spice
Flameout- 1/2 tsp Pumpkin Pie Spice

OG: 1.076

I'm thinking maybe its an Imperial Pumpkin Porter? Dessert Pumpkin Porter?

Is it dark like a porter? I would say maybe a Pumpkin Strong Ale.

It may not be as dark as a Porter but it is definitely equivalent in maltiness. That's kinda why I'm having a tough time defining the style.

Hoping that the 2oz of Cascade is enough to balance out the malt and pumpkin spice

With the Caramunich and Special B, it seems like a Belgian Strong Ale, but with the addition of Pumpkin, the maple syrup instead of Candi, and the American grain, hops, and yeast. I guess you have a Hybrid Pumpkin Strong Ale.
