Just brewed an IPA from a recipe off CHB from an interview in Brew Your Own magazine with Lagunitas brewers.
I only had .2 pound of 60L so I added 1.5 oz of special B along with it.
only had .25 Horizon so used that and .8 oz cascade at the 60 min.
Batch Data:

Wort Volume: 7.4 Gallons
Pounds Grain
11 American 2 Row
0.40 American Dextrin (Cara-Pils) Malt
0.30 Crystal Malt 60L
0.20 German Light Munich Malt
12.23 Total Grain Weight

Hops 0.75 ounces Horizon Pellets @ 60 minutes
0.90 ounces Cascade Pellets @ 30 minutes
0.25 ounces Williamette Pellets @ 30 minutes
3.15 ounces Cascade Pellets @ 0 minutes wait 15 min. before cooling
Yeast
WYEAST American Ale 1056 — Liquid ( made a 600ml starter)

Pre boil gravity 1.044
Efficiency 74.4%
Points / Pound / Gallon (ppg):28.0

Recipe calls for 7 gal of sparge water but my water container hods just over 5 gal so...
Fg was 1.050 but it looked a little short on water in the fermentor so I added 1.0 gal h20 which gave me F.G of 1.046
It was a very clean mash and I transferred about 25% of the hop trub into the bottle hoping to get that hop taste of those 3 oz of cascade put in at flame out.
The recipe can be found at :http://www.clubhomebrew.com/index.php?page=recipeDetail&filter=VTBrewer&id=13
 
What was your mash temp? Apparently they mash at 160 which I thought was crazy until the brewing network did an episode on it. The head brewer at Lagunitas confirmed it.
