demoing a Nut Brown recipe

[sutepan]

I'm having some friends over next Saturday who are interested in starting to brew, and wanted to see the process. A couple of them like nut brown (not my fave) so I thought I'd try one. After researching a bunch of recipes, I came up with this one. I wanted to use a few different specialty grains and some different hops so they could see/taste/smell the differences. I'll be pitching the Ringwood slurry from the ESB I made two weeks ago.

Any suggestions? As I mentioned, I've never actually made a nut brown before...

Thanks!

I've made this recipe a few times. I tweaked to my inventory and it's been great each time.
