Probably stupid but I am doing it anyway

[sonofgrok]

I have been sitting on some leftover this and some leftover that for a while now, so I am gonna do something with it. I say "something" because I am not quite sure what this beast will turn out.

Going to make two 1 gallon batches with:
~2#s breiss special dark LME
1 can organic pumpkin puree
.5 oz Willamette hops (full 60 minutes I am thinking?)
1 packet Montrachet yeast (yeah... you read that right. I am using leftover stuff I have laying around... no dedicated buys for this brew. That includes getting some beer yeast)

Yum/yuck/wierd/crazy/dumb/whatever... I am doing it... and I am drinking it.

I guess if you're that bored....sure, why not make pumpkin bine

Let us know how it turns out.

Less bored than want to get rid of these hops and LME somewhat productively. Still, these may be the beers that sit in the back of the cellar closet and get dusted off when the cellar runs dry and throats be desperate for some brew.

Wine yeast doesn't do a good job of fermenting maltose. You may not get very far into fermentation.

Yeah. I had considered this... especially using the super dark malt. But oh well...

I spose I could add some honey to try to get the ferment going but I don't want to take the OG up too high.

If you have bakers yeast that might bring it down lower.

Negative good sir. I have EC-1118, Montrachet, and Chinese yeast balls (for rice wine) at the moment. I quess I could always do a wild yeast brew with it but no thanks. lol. Its already going to be weird tasting enough.
