MMASH - looking for IPA recipe/ideas

[Misplaced_Canuck]

I'm interested in experimenting with doing IPA's with a single hops, but I'm not really interested in doing single malts.

What I have in mind is this:

85% US or UK Pale malt
6% Cara-pils (body)
6% Crystal (Color/sweetness)
3% wheat for head retention

I would then FWH, then do 60-45-15-0 minute additions and dry hop, getting to around 60-70 IBU's combined.

I'm sure that some hops are well suited for this, but I'm mostly trying to find the ones that *aren't* (in an effort to avoid them).

Any ideas or thoughts?

The carapils and crystal will aid in body and head retention. All 3 really aren't necessary imo.

Amarillo is nice.

I'd stick with the pacific NW hops for a citrus aroma, and stay away from earthier more resiny hops.
