Taste Notes

I didn't hit mash temps. I ended up with a medium light profile instead of the robust rich full body I wanted. Now the beer has developed this vegetable like flavor. I need to reduce the pumpkin amount for the mash from 10lbs to 5 the next time I make it.

Notes

I updated the recipe to reflect the 5lbs of puree for the mash instead of the 10lbs I originally used. This is my 3rd time making this beer and every year I've made changes to it to dial it in. This year was the first year it was an all grain brew so the malt bill was modified from my partial mash bathes from years past. I may add 2oz of roasted barley and reduce the chocolate malt to add a hint of roasted character.
