Trying to decide on a recipe to brew for my father in law. Want a find a good style and recipe for a dark, strong, German style that will age well. Would rather do a ale over a lager. Leaning toward a Rauchbier, but open for suggestions.

A Rouchbier is a lager. German ales include Kolsch, Altbier, and wheat beers. How dark and how strong are you looking for?
If you want strong and dark that doesn't leave much besides doppelbock unless I'm forgetting something.
Thanks for the suggestions, still leaning toward an ale and not a lager, not Cole enough here in NC. Read some recipes on line about using a ale yeast for a Rauchbier. Won't be a accurate Rauchbier, but close enough. Any ideas with the yeast?
