Notes

Instructions:
Place the contents of (1) 15oz. can of pumpkin pie filling in a cheesecloth bag. Steep in 2-3 gallons of 155 degree water for 60 minutes. Remove pumpkin and drain any remaining liquid into the water.

Add dry malt extract and boil for 40 minutes.

Add hops and spices. Continue boil for 20 more minutes.

Remove From heat and cool.

Pour into primary fermenting bucket using cheesecloth and a sieve to filter out the hops and any pulp from the pumpkin. Make sure that the mixture is well aerated to maximize fermentation.

Ferment until the bubbling all but stops at room temperature (approx 2 weeks)

Transfer the beer to a bottling bucket, making sure not to transfer any of the yeast from the fermentation bucket.

Add the boiled priming sugar syrup to the bottling bucket and stir lightly to avoid working too much air into the beer.

Bottle and let carbonate for another 1.5 to 2 weeks.
