Love the color Dgallo, it looks neon totally BA!! Man that has a nice head for only tapping it 20 min prior.
I am planning the next brew using the Kvieking yeast by imperial. What was you pitch rate and ferment temp schedule? I was thinking of pitching at 150-200 billion. This would be my first round using one of these kviek strains. Your grain bill is similar to what i am kinda evolving to by using malted adjuncts instead of flaked. Your comment about it being dryer that you wanted, would you think mashing in around 156* help out. That would be my first thought, but not sure what do you think.
Current Grain bill: ( Picture of the color is in the test beaker, the pint is of a poopyty brown commercial brewed neipa)
76% Pilsen malt
8.5% Flaked White Wheat
8.5% Flaked Oats
4.3% Flaked Rice
2.1% Carapils

For my next batch i think i am leaning towards something like the below to ease in to experimenting with malted oats/wheat. Any reasons you are not adding wheat to your grain bill?
Next Grain Bill in the works, after reading Janis's book
70% Pilsen malt
10% Wheat malt
10% Oats Malt
5% Flaked Barley
5% Cara pils ( this may be a bit too high)
