Looks a little bitter, maybe tone it down to 48.2360746376882 IBUs ? Ahh the old ones are the best

Recipe looks good - what yeast?

nottingham i was thinking on this one ?

what about a touch of crystal in the grain bill say 150 grams?

I tend to think blonde ales are good for trying out new hops, especially big citrussy ones. You could add a little carapils or caramalt for body, 250g or so.
