Just tried this beer tonight and was impressed enough to go looking for a clone. Of course it looks like it's so new there is none to be found. What I did find:
ABV: 9.5%
IBU: 55
Summary: Specialty & smoked malts, Brown and Candi Sugar, honey, oak aged.
I'm not quite good enough to take a stab at a grain bill or pick out the hop varieties used. Anyone out there had it and think they can? I'd be willing to brew something that sounds close to find out!

Its combination of brown sugar and honey, paired with a variety of rich specialty and smoked malts before being aged for months with oak chips, give it a depth worth sipping next to the fire. Inspired by eight brewers working in four teams, 8-4-1 offers complex nuances to the traditional American-Style Strong Brown Ale that I am confident beer connoisseurs will appreciate.
The Ale offers complex flavor notes, delivering malty sweetness and medium bitterness with hints of smoked flavors and oak chips balanced by the addition of honey, brown sugar and candi sugar.
