Been brewing for awhile and have quit a few challenging beers under my belt. I enjoy extract brewing or partial brewing and was wondering if there is a clone floating around of this beer. I know this is probably a silly question but does anyone have one or any suggestions? Thanks.
 
I have never converted a recipe, so hopefully someone else will chime in, but I dumped the ingredients from the AG recipe I linked to into BeerSmith and used it's AG to extract conversion and this is what it spit out. Note that you can get a free trial version of BeerSmith if you want, but it's well worth the money.

Holy crap that is a ton of fermentables. I do 5 gallon batches so no way I could handle that! How strong is that? 15-17%?
 
Yep, it's a crazy recipe. Have you had DL? It's a crazy beer.

It comes out to 13.5% in BeerSmith.

Just noticed your location. I grew up in Depew :mug:
