Wondering if anyone has come across a clone for Bière Du Boucanier Red Ale? Currently I am just an extract brewer (5 Gallon).... Any help would be appreciated

Good to know thanks... It has been in primary for 11 days and bubble has slowed to about a min in between.... Should I leave it still till 21 days? Also I was going for a Blonde with some summer ale flavor... That is why the lemon, grains of paradise, and wheat malt.... Good move? Or no?
