Kegged my pumpkin ale. I put 2 tsp of pumpkin spice and a chopped up vanilla bean into 2 oz of dark rum back on brew day. Strained the bits of vanilla bean out and dumped the mixture into the keg today. Smelled fantastic!
Beer tasted pretty good before I added the spice too.
I’ve never done a tincture like this before but you’ve inspired me to try...my pumpkin came out a bit low on grav and not as spicy as I typically like, so before I put the second keg on I might try this....also kegging a dunkelweizen today. Had our Halloween party at the house last night and put a keg of my zombie dust clone I’ve been dialing in, for everyone to try. This is the first time I’ve done this and got so many people trying my beer, got rave reviews!

Racked my session mead onto some blueberries and strawberries.
Brewing my American Barleywine and a partygyle beer too.
I did this with my Chocolate Banana Stout....
On brew day I put four oz of cacao nibs in a jar and covered with white rum. Then at kegging added the nibs to tea ball hung by fishing line and poured the cacao tincture into the keg. A week later I lifted the tea out and gassed it.
It's really chocolaty. I also mashed with 8 oz of Hershey cocoa. Smell is the cocoa, taste is the cacao. Banana was done late in the boil. It's got both smell and taste of banana. The taste dominance of banana and chocolate waver with time as the beer warms.
It's a weirdly nice sipper.

Filled 14 ea. 22oz bottles. Some with porter and some with IPA. This week will be “Free beer Friday” for my coworkers.
Made a starter with wlp 1007 for my Brew Day. Doing a hybrid beer I created German IPA with honey. Having an IPA also [emoji16]View attachment 594519View attachment 594520View attachment 594521
Lol. I used half German pilsner malt half us two row. I made it a year or so go pretty good [emoji12]As a lifelong student of History, and having lived in Germany for 9 years, I don't recall the Germans ever exploring India...hmmm.
