I like it. Nice hop choices. I'm willing to bet that Conan will finish a bit lower than 1.018, assuming you oxygenate and pitch the proper amount of yeast.
 
Thats my hope as well but we'll see. I've only used Imperial Yeast's version 1 other time and don't recall the outcome. I typically use The Yeast Bay's strand however they were unavailable at time of order.
