I like my Nierra Sevada, but this seems the time of year to back off of the citrus punch that the Cascade puts in the recipe.
Im shooting for a session Pale Ale. Clean, crisp and moderately bitter with little to no citrus aroma. Somewhere just north of 4.1% and not too dark in color.
This is my first use of Nugget so Im hoping they do the trick. Anyone see any flaws with this recipe?

Recipe Specifications
--------------------------
Batch Size: 11.00 gal
Boil Size: 13.50 gal
Estimated OG: 1.043 SG
Estimated Color: 6.3 SRM
Estimated IBU: 28.3 IBU
Brewhouse Efficiency: 72.0 %

Ingredients:
------------
Amount Item Type % or IBU
15.00 lb Pale Malt, Maris Otter (3.0 SRM)
1.00 lb Biscuit Malt (23.0 SRM)
1.00 lb Caramel/Crystal Malt - 20L
0.50 lb Cara-Pils/Dextrine (2.0 SRM)
1.00 oz Nugget [13.00%] (60 min)
1.00 oz Goldings, East Kent [6.90%] (10 min)
Kolsch Slurry from prior batch.
Mash at 150 for 60 minutes
Ferment at 65 degrees for 7-10 days.
Rack to clearing tank with gelatin and condition additional 10 days.
Rack to keg and crash cool/carbonate for 7 days.
It looks like I can keep the hops/gravity ratio at the lower end of the bitterness spectrum and still stay within style guidlines.
