Re: Brakspear oxford gold
There are a few other threads about cloning this beer and/or culturing their yeast. You could ask jonnyhop how his recipe turned out.

Here's my recommendation, which should get you extremely close. The original is all organic, so obtain organic hops and malts if possible. If not, non-organic versions should taste the same:
SEYMOUR BRAKSPEAR OXFORD GOLD (BOTTLE) CLONE
all-grain recipe
6 US gal = 5 Imperial gal = 22.7 L
FERMENTABLES:
92.3% = 9 lbs = 4 kg, Organic "Plumage Archer" malt (but any British 2-row pale malt i.e. Maris Otter will suffice)
7.7% = 12 oz = .75 lb = 340 g, Organic British crystal malt
HOPS:
.75 oz = 21 g, Organic Target (11.5 AA%), 90 min remaining
1 oz = 28 g, Organic Goldings (5 AA%), 5 min remaining, then allow to steep awhile before chilling and straining
Single-step mash @ 151°F/66°C for 90 min or until converted.
90 minute boil
Irish moss added near end of boil.
YEAST:
True Brakspear strain: cultured from bottle-conditioned beers, and almost certainly White Labs WLP023 and Wyeast 1275
Prime with ½ cup sugar, boiled with a bit of water.
Condition 1 week at fermentation temperature, then 3 weeks at 50-60°F/10-16°C.
Stats assume = 78% mash efficiency and 75% yeast attenuation:
OG: 1.048
FG: 1.012
ABV: 4.6% (which is bottled version; cask is only 4%)
IBU: 31
Color: 8°SRM/16°EBC
