So I just did my third all grain batch last week.  I made a pale ale that I am going to dry hop with some cascade hops I grew last season.  Here is the recipe.  It's already brewed, but any critiques, thoughts etc would be much appreciated.  Happy brewing!

I would suggest that you drink it first, see what you think and if you THINK there is an issue, then ask for help/feedback. At this point its just a recipe and there will all kinds of opinons on it...

[BrewinSB]

True.  I am still learning the different grains, so I wanted to see what others thought about how those grains interplay in the recipe etc.  Only another couple weeks until I can taste.  It's always so difficult waiting.

Looks OK. Cleaning out your grain supply?
