What to do with all these pumpkins??! That was said last year and thus this beer was born! First we roasted an obscene amount of little sugar pie pumpkins in our wood fired oven. Then what started as a farm joke turned into a reality- we roasted a huge squash called a pink banana and threw the whole thing into the mash with the pumpkins, and lots of oats and dark roasted malts. After the taxing brew day, we pitched a big Belgian yeast strain into the wort to ferment before transferring to American oak barrels from a Oregon whiskey distillery. After aging all summer, we bottle conditioned a limited amount in our signature cork and cage bottles, and charged the rest with Nitro for an extra silky smooth mouthfeel. The result is a big beer with big flavors and an uncomparable mouthfeel. Strong whiskey and oak aromas yield to the thick body and dominating roast and chocolate flavor. Not too late in the finish, there's the roasted pumpkin and squash! Celebrate the season with this hearty winter brew.
