Just came up with this last night and am going to brew it next week.
Took a lot of concepts from my New England IPAs and scaled it back for more of a summer time Pale Ale, still packed with a lot of hop flavor.

I recently brewed a "New England" Pale Ale which was similar to yours. I replaced a bit of the 2-row with Golden Promise. Turned out very nice. Good luck with the brew and let us know how it turns out.

I brewed a blonde ale with hops schedule similar to this. Grain difference was less 2-row subbed with Vienna. Can’t wait!!!
