Just brewed up a version of this as a half batch, skipping the mash and doing 3.3 lb of light lme + specialty grains steeped for thirty minutes. The rest of the recipe is the same. OG of only 1050, but that's ok.
Had a taste, and it's fantastic. The hops seem pretty close to what I expected. I've never been happier about a beer right after the boil.
Anyway, I'll post on this thread once I have some results in late December. Cheers!

The yeast is what makes or breaks a two hearted clone. You really need to harvest the yeast to get it right. Closest commercial example is wyeast 1272. Also imo the fg is too high and the ibu's are too low. Looks like a good beer though.
