Nice! I’ll have to try it with some pumpkin spice if I make it again.

So I decided to make this last night. I used a bottle of Big Boss’ Harvest Time and got essentially the same result, even though I let the chili cook first and then added the beer to simmer for about 30 more minutes. I really wanted something of a pumpkin essence so I said screw it and threw in some pumpkin pie spice, which naturally makes anything better. Gave it a nice fall “kick” or something of the sort.

There’s a pumpkin beer bread recipe I want to try as well that’s pretty simple, and my wife is making a Guinness chocolate pie for me for my birthday. I’ll probably put up something on that, too. Those pumpkin cupcakes were excellent.

I’m all over this. I’ve done stews with various beers and typically end up with a similar flavor – the beer is hiding somewhere but you can’t entirely make it out. When I try this I think I’ll throw a pumpkin beer in for the last simmering and see what happens.

If I feel adventurous, I may just use the pumpkin cupcake recipe from your wife’s blog, too.
