"Can You Brew It?" Arrogant Bastard Clone

This is the recipe from thebrewingnetwork.com's "Can You Brew It?" show, scaled to my rig/efficiency. The brewers found that with an OG of 1.066, a grist of 10% Special B and the remainder 2-Row, and the following hop schedule, they produced a beer that was identical in a side-by-side tasting with the Stone product. The only flavor difference they attributed to pasteurization. Can't wait to brew this one!
