Let me know your thoughts on this idea:
~1.5 lbs 100% pumpkin filling
8 ounces Flaked Barley
4 ounces Belgian Special B
16 ounces 60 L Caramel (Briess)
4 ounces Chocolate Malt
3 ounces Roasted Barley
6 pounds amber DME
1 oz Fuggles, whole @ 60
1 oz Saaz, whole @ 30
1 oz Saaz, whole @ 15
1 oz Styrian Goldings, whole @ 10
1 oz Target, whole, @ 5
Extras:
4 oz of real chocolate (added to primary with wort and allowed to melt before adding the cooling water)
1 cinnamon stick (2 inches or so)
1 tbsp Pumpkin Spice
Both added to Primary
Yeast:
1084 Irish Ale Yeast
I'm thinking of brewing this by June to be ready by October. By October, the hops, chocolate and pumpkin should settle down. I imagine this as a perfect mug to sip from while gathered around a bonfire or to serve at a Halloween party.
