Hello all
Long time lurker, first time poster...

Experience: 4+ years of all-grain brewing/temp controlled fermentations

I wanted to get some feedback on a recipe I'm brewing tomorrow. I'm a bit skeptical about the effects of the CaraAmber. I'm going for a Nutty English Style Brown Ale with a bit more bitterness than the typical English Brown Ale. (I always find myself wanting a bit more bitterness when I brew English Browns..so I'm upping the hops. I have yet to use Northern Brewer hops, so any thoughts on that would be appreciated)

targets:
OG 1.060

Thanks.

I will keep you posted on the tasting. I give 8-10 weeks from grain to glass for my typical, non-Belgian/non-funky 1.060 beers.
