I dropped by the LHBS and picked up some stuff, I got a 7lb tub of Pale LME, 2oz of Cascade hops and 1oz of Amarillo hops. I figure the 2oz of Cascade for 60, 0.5 oz Amarillo at 30 and the rest at 5, I punched that into Beer Calculus and got an expected OG of 1.050, ABV 4.9% and 44.2 IBU. Any recomendations? I am kegging the 10 gallons that I have in fermenters today so I figure next week I will boil this up and have it sit in secondary until a keg opens up for it, the Hefe should go quick :D
 
I'd use an ounce of something else for bittering,like warrior or magnum. Then use 1oz cascade,1oz amarillo,& 1oz maybe columbus for flavor. Then dry hop with the other ounce of cascade.
Otherwise,it seems to me to be a well bittered pale ale.
