Interestingly, my recipe for pumpkin ale from way back in 2004 is the number one result on Google for the search “pumpkin ale recipe”—this time of year I always see the search numbers spike (for good reason). I’ve bragged about this before (yes, I do that from time to time) but I certainly don’t mind pointing to other recipes on the web that sound good.

Thus, the posted Pumpkin Spice Ale recipe over on Kegerators.com. It’s similar to my own, though they use less pumpkin, and they have more detailed, exacting directions on the mashing of the pumpkin and grains together. (Mine are a bit vague in this area.)

I also like the use of whole cloves in this recipe. I don’t have cloves in mine. I may have to steal that one.
