AHS Pumpkin Ale (23) - EXTRACT Homebrew Ingredient Kit

I followed instructions but added 4lbs of canned pumpkin to the boil, baked a small pumpkin cubed and covered it with maple syrup at the end of the boil. I also added vanilla beans and an oak spiral soaked in vanilla vodka. May have overdone it with the vanilla a tiny bit. Next year I'm going to try pumpkin pie filling.

This is a great pumpkin ale. The aroma and taste is spot on with what you would expect. I will say its no session beer so I recommend bottling over kegging if you drink as much as I do. It also surprises me how quickly the alcohol creeps up. Great Pumpkin ale!

My wife and I used to live in Athens GA and go to a microbrewery called Copper Creek. GREAT beer, but their pumpkin ale was far and away their best...would sell out in about 3 days. We moved, and my wife has been on me to try and replicate that recipe. This is THE BEST and (and closest) recipe to that I have been able to do (in 4 years of attempts). I added 2 extra TBLSPS of pumpkin pie spice, soaked in vodka for 3 days first, to the fermenter (I don't do secondaries) one week before bottling. Everything else I followed the recipe on. This is an AMAZING brew, and I just ordered 4 (yes...four) more kits at the request of my wife because it has been made clear to me that this is a beer that we MUST keep on year round. Try this, add a bit of extra pumpkin pie spice, and GET READY...WOW is it good!!!!

This kit is Great Iused canned pumpkin in a grain bag and have a wonderful beer I have to hide from everyone that has tried it, they keep coming back begging from more. Thanks, AHS I'm hooked

Made this with 2.5 cans of organic pumpkin. 3 cans would have been perfect. Waited a few minutes to add the spices until 3 minutes left of the boil. 2 week primary, 6 weeks sitting in (secondary) keg. Carbonated and drank. Tasted great. Just need to add a little bit more pumpkin. The spices were well noticed, no need to add to them.
