Notes

This is SA Harvest Pumpkin ale grain bill with the addition of 1 lb of brown sugar and some vanilla upon kegging. I served this at an Oktoberfest Party in 2015 and it was loved by all. It was really good when you rimmed the glass with honey and put the glass upside down in a sugar and cinnamon mixture. Sort of like you would do with a Margarita glass.
