Hi, You can have a look at:
http://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/ct3003157 In these simulations I used a few different variants in terms of both cut-off's and the 'Berger' force field parameters, and so there isn't just one reference value as the APL is dependent upon these different parameters.

In Justin Lemkul's tutorial, the value 65.8 A^2 is reported, along with a reference to a 1998 Tieleman et al. paper. However, I have read that paper now twice and cannot find this value anywhere. There are also two popc-systems available for download from the Tieleman website, but neither of those give 65.8 A^2, at least in my hands. Could someone please enlighten me about a good reference value for berger popc apl?
