Has anybody brewed this recipe? How did it come out?

Got to adjust the levels but when you get the combo of pale and abbey to about 70% itâ€™s a better tasting representation

This came out great, I used 2x m42 strong ale decanted starters a few days apart and o2 before the first pitch, it is delicious, scored a 35 without the essences at packaging, which isn't bad as it's not really to style anyway,
