The grainbill looks good.

I like the hopping, but I'd move the 60 minute cascades to 5 minutes, one of the palisades addition closer to flame out. Otherwise, I like it!

 

[Wavesport]

So 1oz Cascade and .5 oz Palisade for 5 min, think that will still be bitter enough?

I once hopped a cream ale with 1oz of Cascade at 60 and nothing else.

Which is to say, Cascade has very little bittering ability. Drop in an extra .25-.5 of Warrior at the 60 mark if you're afraid of it not being bitter enough.

I like Yooper's suggestion of the 5 minute additions, and like bernerbrau said you can always bump up the amount of the warrior for the 60 minute addition to get your IBU's back.

Sweet, sounds good, thanks
