Need your ideas/thoughts on this Pumpkin Ale recipe:

This may sound dumb but do you spray the pan before roasting the pumpkin so it won't stick?

No spray, parchment paper! works great. Last fall I had some excess sugar pumpkins from the garden and froze several pounds of the flesh, that's what I used in the beer this year.

I did spray the pan before roasting the pumpkin. Made it easy to clean.

Looks like my flavoring profile for 5G was as follows:

Graham Cracker Extract (QTY 40 drops) - Secondary 1.0 week
Vanilla Beans Seeded (QTY 3 beans) - Secondary 1.0 week
1.00 tsp Blend of 1 tsp Cinnamon, 1/4 tsp Nutmeg, 1/4 tsp Ginger, 1/8 tsp Allspice - Secondary 1.0 week

I remember it being well balanced and not overpowering but to each his own...

I will maybe try all that for my Winter Ale. Thanks for the reply!

I didn't know if the spray would mess up the beer or not.
