Looking at putting together an IPA as my first shot a trying my hand a putting together something from scratch and looking for feedback. I am looking for a good clean IPA with lots of good citrus taste (so my wife will like it) but not over the top might as well be drinking juice.

4.0 oz Caramel/Crystal Malt -120L (120.0 SRM)

1.00 oz Centennial [10.00 %] - Boil 30.0 min
0.50 oz Cascade [5.50 %] - Boil 15.0 min
0.50 oz Amarillo [9.20 %] - Boil 5.0 min
0.50 oz Cascade [5.50 %] - Boil 5.0 min
0.50 oz Citra [12.00 %] - Boil 5.0 min
0.50 oz Amarillo [9.20 %] - Boil 0.0 min
0.50 oz Citra [12.00 %] - Boil 0.0 min
1.0 pkg Safale American (DCL/Fermentis #US-05) [50.28 ml] Yeast 13 -

I have the Chinook, Centennial and Cascade in the freezer and was going to pick up the Amarillo and Citra. Also questioning if I should go for more of a lighter crystal?
