I spent Sunday afternoon at a friend's place that we like to call ELF Gardens brewing up a pumpkin ale for Halloween. While sparge was slow and I was shooting to mash a few degrees hotter, all went well. Here's the recipe, it's based off an ESB, a favorite style of mine. I figure I'll add a tsp pumpkin pie spice at bottling and pull off a plain growler for myself.

.5# 120L
7 lb pumpkin, cubed and baked at 375F for 60 min, added to mash

Mash for 60 min at 151F
Efficiency 80% (not including converted starch from the pumpkin/squash)
1 oz. Liberty Hops at 60 min
