Not sure on the grain build, however have you looked at Willamette for your flavoring and aroma? Are you planning on sticking to style or are you open to interpretation?

I think a West coast Red would be a fun beer to make.

I kinda wanted to stay in Ireland lol.
4 of us are each bringing a keg...so one irish stout...one irish red ale...I was thinking maybe an irish bitter and a cream ale?

I did a 23 l batch from BCS and its great...I know its 170g of C40, C120, and roasted barely(170 g for each). The rest was base malt. There was a 60 min hop addition of EKG for 23-25 ibus...of 1052 and fg approx 1012. I used wyeast 1084 for yeast.
