Anyone brew a pumpkin ale using real pumpkins instead of canned?
I work at a farm/nursery and we have lots of pumpkins coming up, not to mention those growing in my back yard.
I am very well aware of the different types of pumpkins, I am thinking about using the Rouge Vif D Etampes, Amish Pie, or Sugar Pie Pumpkin. All suitable for baking. ( I am partial to the french Rouge pumpkin myself.)
So.....any thoughts? The gist of my question isnt to not buy the canned pumkpkin, but to make something unique.
