Pumpkin spice beer

This past Saturday(10/6/18) I attempted my first pumpkin spice beer. Cant wait to try it!

Update: Doesn't taste like a pumpkin spice beer but definitely a good IPA!

Recipe:

• 7 lbs Light Malt Extract
• 1 lb Crystal 20 L Malt
• ~2oz Fresh Leaf Nugget Hops
• 1 29oz can of Pumpkin Pure
• 1 14oz bottle of Maple Syrup
• 1 Whirlfloc Tablet
• Whitew Labs Belgian Strong Ale Yeast

Homebrew in the carboy fermentation vessel

Makin some hard cider

My neighbors have an apple tree which is dropping a bunch of moldy apples all over there lawn. Didn't want to see them go to waste, so I tried juicing them. It tasted great! So my next thought was hard cider. I had a carboy available, so why not try to make some. With about a hundred small size apple's, one pound of sugar, and some beer yeast; I now have about 2 gallons of some very potent cider. 

Time to get silly.
