I am looking for a 5 gallon extract recipe for a Double Indian Brown Ale- any ideas? Indian Browns are one of my favorites but I want to push the boundaries a little and make something like a Double IPA only IBA! Any help or suggestions would be great!

Don't know if it what your looking for BUT i made this and it was amazing (well at least to me lol) I stepped up the malt extract to meet the fact you want a double.
12 lbs Dark Malt Extract
1 lb Vienna Malt Steeped 60 mins
1 oz Magnum(16.7AA) 60 min boil
1 oz Nugget(12.9 AA)60 min boil
1 oz East Kent Goldings(4.7AA) Flame out
1 oz Perle(7.9AA) Dry hopped day 1
1 oz Amarillo(8.8AA) Dry hopped Day 3
1 oz Tetnange(5.5AA) Dry Hopped day 5
1 package Burton's water salts.
3 packages Wyeast 1968 London ESB Yeast

Vance-
Get a known good recipe for a Brown Porter. Add more base malt extract and 1 lb of Corn Sugar or Candi Sugar, to bump the gravity up to around 1.080, but forget about the yeast & hops from that recipe. Instead, get a known good recipe for an IIPA. Use the hops and yeast from that instead.
Viola- Double India Brown Ale recipe that you "created" yourself.
