Cascadian Dark Ale. Simcoe, FF, Chinook and a bit of Columbus. Or swap Columbus for Nelson for a bit of something else in your Dark ale.
 
If you are in a hurry for something I would make a Session IPA. Low ABV for hot summer days. 2 row and a little something else. Chinook and Columbus for the hops.

If you are looking for something to age. You have the makings of a good Russian Imperial Stout.
 
you've got enough for a NEIPA, Black Imperial IPA, ESB and a nice Porter.. Could also do a nice Dunkelweizen and get creative with the hops (instead of hallertau use Simcoe, nelson or Pacific (etiher one)).. also a nice czech pils ... maybe a Patersbier too
 
Here's also a recipie that you could do but add in some of the smoked malt (more traditional with smoked malts) and swap the vienna for the 2-row that you have plenty of..... and get creative with the hops.. i used mosaic in mine , which is obviously not type correct, ....
