Batch #129: Grille-roasted Pumpkin Ale


Here we go again, another unspiced Pumpkin Amber Ale, once again using grille-roasted pumpkin from my 2011 backyard garden.  180 pounds of  "Lakota Sioux" and "Cinderella" variety pumpkins have provided plenty of ingredients in the freezer for beer, pie and soup, until Harvest 2013.  The pumpkin gracing this ale label was grown by Patty Phelan in Carbondale, from seeds I harvested from those two big guys in my 2011 collection, so now I have seed from 2012, to plant in 2013.  But I digress - I saved a few bottles from the last two pumpkin ales before this one, and will have a little taste-test to compare them.
