Ooooh, I like it!

The only (minor) criticism I have is it may be a bit too bitter. Do you have an IBU/OG ratio in Promash? I'd look to have it at about .900-1.00 or so. I don't see that on your recipe, so it may be fine. I'm not great in math, and at my advanced age, I don't do it unnecessarily :D.
