Halloween is coming and it's time to hollow out pumpkins and carve grinning faces into them. In addition, many autumn recipes call for pumpkins, which is why they will often find their way into our kitchen. But this time, instead of standard recipes, we offer you an alternative way of using pumpkin. Not for soup, not for sauce, not for dessert, not for decoration, but for making a beer barrel. At the same time, its core can be usefully used to make one of the countless culinary treats, and instead of using a knife, "cut" into the shell with a pick.
In autumn, pumpkins are prepared in a thousand and one ways, but we also have them for decoration. But we can use them in another way that you probably didn't know. You can make from them beer keg. Why always fill them with a candle when you can pour your favorite hoppy drink into them. You only need some basic "tools" and a tap. And your favorite beer, of course.
