I'm working on inputting this recipe into beersmith, and doing the all extract or partial mash version

How did this turn out? Very interested in your experience. The BYO article states the SRM is 90 (?) which seems to be quite the typo. I've put the clone recipe in Beersmith and have a similar SRM as you (~16-17).

A guy at work gave me a bottle of jack and kens 30th anniversary for my birthday in August. It's 3 years old so I'm curious to see if its still good.
