Just wanted to get some feedback on this recipe I put together, it's an amalgamation of several I've seen online.

Oat blonde ale recipe (Extract)

60 minute boil

Grains:

0.5 lb Crystal 10 (steeped)
0.5 lb Carapils (steeped)
0.5 lb flaked oats (Steeped)

6 lbs extra light dry malt extract (1.5 lbs at beginning of boil, 4.5 in last 10 minutes to reduce color)

Hops:

0.5 oz Willamette (60 mins)
0.5 oz willamette (15 mins)
0.5 oz willamette (5 mins)

Also:

1 oz irish moss (15 mins)

Yeast:

Safale US-56 American Ale Yeast 11.5 Gram Pack

So, any glaring problems with this?
 
UPDATE: Just dispensed my first pint from tap-a-draft system and it tastes pretty darn good. It is hazy, but I think the oats add a bit of flavor and a slightly heavier mouthfeel.

All in all I could drink this anytime (plus it only took 7 days to carb). Definitely holding on to it as a good quick-brew when I want to fill a hole in the pipeline.
