Howdy Mikem,
Re the AG recipe. The closest thing I have found to dogbolter so far is the Schwarzbier recipe from Ross. It's probably a little 'richer' than Dogbolter but far 'smoother' than today's commercial one. I posted the recipe the other day towards the end of Post #72 of this thread. (Bit embarrassing when you have to say towards the end but this was a pictorial post!)
I think you'll be very happy with this beer. It's certainly the closest I have found so far to the dogbolter brewed 20 years ago.
Another thing, while this is a lager, we tried brewing it with US-56 with very good results. Last I heard, Ross has switched over to brewing it with US-56 at about 15-16 degrees with consistently excellent results.
I'd try that recipe first. It also has the choc malt and dark crystal in it that Seth has mentioned.
Cheers
