Aaron, you are right. I need to go back to the drawing board and make it all grain and mess with the malts a bit.

I would definitely scrap the extract on a beer like this, where there's nothing to hide if the malt flavor isn't right. 1.5 lbs of crystal seems like way too much, in my opinion. Doppelbocks get their sweetness more from a lower hopping rate than from, y'know, actual residual sweetness. Don’t you brew AG now?

I also did a Three Floyds Alpha King Clone, which I called Omega King. It was excellent--it won first place in the IPA category of the B.U.Z.Z. Brewoff this year. I also did a Negra Modelo Clone, using rice as the adjunct instead of corn. It's currently lagering, so I've only taken an early taste; it seems too light both in body and color to be confused with Negra Modelo. It's a tasty beer though--kind of like Vienna Lager light.
