Yeah, I saw your recipe LB looks pretty good.
I may have a go with warm fermented lager yeast myself rather than getting in a specific yeast - I've got some 830 on the go.
I'll probably plagurise your recipe - at least the pilsner, munich and wheat percentages - I'll go with some Special B and biscuit for the cara malts as I have that in stock.

Had a brew the day before yesterday with Aramis. Simple grain bill, pale malt, pilsner malt, some flaked and torrified wheat. Today I'm getting a hint of honey aroma along with the above mentioned. Split part of the batch off to ferment down in the cellar at 12C with a lager yeast in it. Not checked on it yet.

Pretty underwhelming so far, just bottled and kegged it after a lengthy dry hop.... not much going on with it alone.

I've carried on plugging away with Aramis in various ways over the last year... (where the hell did that go?) and I am still pretty much underwhelmed by them all in all. However, pair them with H. Mittlefruh (bittering and 20 mins from flame out) in a Belgian Dubbel and wowwweeeeee!

I found they mixed admirably with Mt Hood in a pale.
