Here's an idea for a dark brown ale I'd love everyone's feedback on... Thanks!

5 lbs Maris Otter
2 lbs 2 row
2 lbs Brown
1 lb special B
1 lb flaked Barley
0.5 lb flaked oats
0.5 lb C-80
0.125 lb C-120

Use attenuating fruity yeast (Wyeast 1318 - London Ale III ??). 150F mash temp to get attenuation.

English hops. Around 35 IBU. Ideas?

OG 1.055
FG 1.013
ABV 5.5%
SRM 27

Thanks in advance for your help!

Special B is a special kind of strong in the flavor department so I would use no more than a half lb, but that's just me. Plenty of flavor in the crystal malts imo.
