Title says it all really; I'd like to do something along the lines of the Guinness Foreign Export for my next all-grain. Something around 7% ABV (so I guess an o.g. around 1.070 - 1.075?).
Does anyone have a particularly recommended recipe for this style of beer?
Something along the lines of Guinness Foreign Export Stout?

I had a quick look because I thought I had the recipe somewhere, but haven't found it yet...and it's late...and I need to sleep!
Until I find it you could just up-gun a standard Guinness recipe to the desired OG and up the hop rate to balance it.
Pale Malt, Flaked Barley, and Roast Barley, in the ratio of 7:2:1. Copper hop with, well, it doesn't matter too much as there are no late additions, but Northdown and Goldings would be near the mark, to about 70-80 IBU. You need a well attenuating yeast. Guinness? Or, Nottingham/Gervin Ale would do it.
5kg pale malt, 1.45kg flaked barley, and 0.75kg roast barley should give you 24L at OG1070 at 80% efficiency, as a guesstimate.

Steve was pretty much bang on with the quantities, I had it kicking around as I was going to do this a while back, but didn't, it's in Wheelers European

Guiness foreign extra stout from BCEBAH
23L OG 1.073 FG 1.020 a.b.v 7.2% 65 IBU
Pale malt 5.7kg
Flaked barley 1.55kg
Roast barley 450g
Mash at 67C for 90 minutes
40g Target Hops 90 minute boil
60g Goldings Hops 90 minute boil
But according to the text to get the original "Horse blanket" flavour you are going to need the speciality yeast.
I hope this helps
