The clone recipe is at the very bottom of this link. It came out of a BYO article.

Good luck! I enjoy that beer.

Gotta love the Ruination partial-mash recepie that calls for 22oz of Centennial whole hops for dry-hopping!

Yes, I know its a typo and supposed to be 2oz. Still made me laugh

Has anyone tried brewing the AG clone recipe for Stone Imperial Russian Stout from stonebrew.com? Is it close to the real thing?

from my experience of doing RIS's, the recipe looks pretty good, except for one problem: Not so certain the yeast will finish out to the extent desired. I bet it does get pretty close if done properly. Maybe add some Super High Gravity into the secondary (with a rigorous starter going) when the English Ale yeast is done. Maybe Zurich Lager would work as well. May just use the Zurich Lager yeast and nothing else. Hmmmm almost time to make a RIS....
