Kitchen Sink Pale Ale - Need some advice

[gatorforty]

Hi Folks,

I have some leftover grains, hops, and even an extra WLP001 yeast from the last 3-4 batches. I intend to brew something from what I have...what do you all think of this recipe? Only thing I would have leftover after this would be another few oz's of Cascade hops, some more victory malt, and some Crystal 60L. Would you change the hop additions much?

Thanks, I appreciate your feedback.
