Pumpkin Beer

Pumpkin Beer is an alcoholic beverage, which, as its name says, has pumpkin among its main ingredients. It is a local speciality in Talon, and thus it is served in the Wounded Lion Inn. Two variations of this drink exist: the first variation is made by adding lots of extra sugar (or syrup) to pumpkin pulp that's been dissolved in water (this is necessary, as there are only 2.2 grams of sugar for every 100 grams of pumpkin, which would make it impossible to reach the ideal 4-6% alcohol-by-volume even in case of perfect fermentation) - other variation is to prepare regular beer wort and mix in the pumpkin pulp, which effectively makes the second variant a literal pumpkin-flavored beer. For flavoring, various spicing herbs (e.g. rue, hops, etc.) can be used, or alternatively elderberries.

Preparation
Or more precisely:
 * 1) Ensure that the following ingredients are in possession:
 * 2) * 1 kg of pumpkin
 * 3) * 500 g of sugar or syrup (for the first variation)
 * 4) * Water
 * 5) * Yeast
 * 6) * Optional: spicing herbs or elderberries for flavor
 * 7) Cut the pumpkin into small pieces and remove the seeds.
 * 8) Dissolve the pumpkin pieces in water, using enough water to cover the pumpkin completely.
 * 9) Bring the pumpkin and water mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer.
 * 10) Let the pumpkin simmer for about an hour, or until it is soft and easily mashed with a fork.
 * 11) Mash the pumpkin with a fork or potato masher, then strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any remaining bits of pumpkin.
 * 12) If making the first variation of Pumpkin Beer, add the sugar or syrup to the pumpkin liquid and stir until it is fully dissolved. Alternatively, if making the second variation of Pumpkin Beer, add the pumpkin liquid to the prepared beer wort and stir until it is fully combined.
 * 13) Add the yeast to the pumpkin mixture and stir until it is fully combined.
 * 14) If using, add the chosen spicing herbs or elderberries to the mixture.
 * 15) Transfer the mixture to a fermenting vessel and cover it with a cloth or a loose-fitting lid.
 * 16) Let the mixture ferment for 7-10 days, or until it reaches your desired level of alcohol content.
 * 17) Once the fermentation is complete, transfer the Pumpkin Beer to bottles or kegs and store it in a cool, dark place until ready to serve.
