I have been wanting to try and make a clone of this but haven't gotten around to it yet. I found this clone recipe a while back that seems like a good place to start.

I would make a few changes to that recipe if I were to brew it. To me, F-5 is very dry and would change the grain bill to have it finish closer to 1.010. I also think there needs to be way more late hops and dry hops. I would probably just do a big whirlpool addition of FF and Columbus followed by a big dry hop of both. I also kind of think they may use an English yeast instead of the Chico strain. I've been planning on trying wlp007. These are just my thoughts on it. I do drink a lot of this stuff though. If you brew a clone let me know how it turns out. I may try and make an attempt before too long.
