First attempt at recipe, turned out really good, wife liked it too and she is not a beer drinker, OG came out lower than expected. Efficiency was more at 60% than 70% as hoped. I decided to make another batch but wanted it to be sweeter, more like a pumpkin pie.

This recipe was cloned from Hail Hail Pumpkin Ale.
