I posted this in the recipe discussion area but I didn't really get much feedback

I'm trying to make a Belgian pale ale and this is what I have so far, any suggestions? It's a 5 gallon partial mash

So I changed the recipe around a bit and it's now a partial mash

2# 2 Row Pils (Belgium)
3.3# Light LME
1# Amber Candi Sugar
.5# Toasted Malt
.4# Bisuit Malt
.4# Caramunich
1 oz Cascade 60 min

WLP500

BIAB Light body
 
I won't be very "Pale". Cascade is not very "Belgiany".
I've changed it around it around since. I also added a second .5 oz dose of Fuggle at 15 and another .5 oz dose of east Kent at 5

In my opinion, to simplify the recipe you could ditch the candi sugar. My belgians (both pale and dark) are good with table sugar and the proper grains. I'm a huge proponent of the Belgian aromatic, myself, so I would replace the toasted and biscuit with aromatic. Just my preference, though.
