That would be great-- trying to decide btw evil twin or west coast blaster. Ideally looking for an imperial red

It's a great beer, but I would for sure add 2-4 oz of dry hops (equal parts Amarillo & Centennial). If you can't get any amarillo you can sub cascade - won't be the same beer, but that's what Jamil approved as a substitute in the NB kit.

Brewing 25 gallons of it Sunday

Looks great-- do find it to be more hoppy aroma vs bittering?

Yes - it's got a ton of hop flavor and aroma, and isn't as bitter as many IPAs, but there is still plenty of bitterness to achieve the right balance.
