I've done this one, and if you don't mind the slightly decreased ABV, I reckon it's a good match for fat yak. It started out pretty much as a "cleaning out the cupboard" ale.

Coopers Real Ale
500g LDME
1kg Coopers BE2
250g Weyermann Caramunich Type 2 steeped
16g Cascade @ 10 min
12g Nelson Sauvin @ 5 min
US-05

Make to 28l.
