Ideas for West Yorkshire ale yeast

[ChuckE]

I finally got my paws on some West Yorkshire ale yeast.

Any suggestions for a beer that would really showcase the yeast?

The beer will be gravity poured from an improvised cask.

I have the following supplies for the brew;
Maris Otter
crystal 10
crystal 60
crystal 120
chocolate malt
roasted barley
malted wheat
flaked barley
fuggles hops
EKG hops

Any ideas?

I probably should mention that I'm unfamiliar with the beers of West Yorkshire.

Not a very original idea, but how about TTL? There's a recent discussion on cloning this.

The CYBI Riggwelter clone?

All I have is MO- no GP. Would MO be close enough or a miss? I've never used it.

93.5% Maris Otter
4% C60
2% c120
0.5% Choc Malt

Fuggles 60mins
EKG 15mins

Maybe sub in some wheat malt for MO in place of torrified wheat?

Interesting....

How many IBUs do you think?

West Yorkshire brews:

1) old school, now no longer brewed, in Yorkshire at least: Tetley Bitter, Websters Bitter, Websters Green Label. I think Tadcaster's in North Yorkshire so we won't mention either of the Smiths

2) current: Taylors Landlord, Wharfebank Brewery Tether Blonde Ale, Saltaire Brewery Blonde Ale, Cascade Pale Ale, Chocolate Stout; Leeds Brewery Pale Ale. I'm sure there are more, but all of these are very very nice (can't speak for the stout as I haven't tried that one)

Low 30s, say with a ceiling at 34? Also, u could try caramelising the first runnings, but ur fine if u skip it since there is crystal malt in the bill.

Thanks everyone. Weiht's idea looks good.... plus, it's all there and I'm a lazy mofo.
How does this look for a 41 liter batch?
(The units are converted to metric)

7711 gms MO 86%
454 gms flaked barley 5%
363 gms C60 4%
227 gms wheat malt 2.5%
181 gms C120 2%
45 gms choco .5%
EOG = 1.055 (efficiency 82%)
10.7 SRM
mash @ 68C for 60 mins

85 gms fuggles @ 60 mins = 21.6 IBU
85 gms EKG @ 15 mins = 11.9 IBU
Total IBUs 33.5

Pitch @ 17C
Allow the temp to rise to 20C and keep it there for fermentation

Thoughts... suggestions...

Edit to add- I plan to brew more using West Yorkshire ale yeast.
I'm not familiar with any of the beers named above so I'll need to research them and the recipes.
This is the first of several with this yeast and the intent is to brew a beer to showcase the yeast.

Here is a Landlord Clone recipe just for your general interest, I realize that you haven't any Golden Promise. You would caramelize a portion of the first runnings rather than using crystal malt.

Total Grain (Lbs): 9.00
Anticipated OG: 1.043
Anticipated IBU: 31.2

100.0% - 9.00 lbs. Golden Promise

Hops

C60 would be medium and C120 would be dark.

Sorry, I don't understand, What doesn't add up?
edit ok, I get it... you've had 8 pints.
