I would up the flavor/Aroma hops as they were subdued from what I like.
+1. I like using tropical type hops with an all Brett fermentation, to complement the sometimes fruity, pineappley character. Citra ,Galaxy, Nelson, and Mosaic are all excellent choices.
Citra, mosaic and galaxy. I just made an IPA with that combination and am going to use it in my next brett beer. The aroma and flavor from that blend is just wonderful to me. Very fruity and I feel like each hop adds something different and they pair well. I get pineapple and blueberries mostly.

But once I get it in a blend with certain other hops it starts to morph into pineapple. Citra + Nelson + Meridian combine to give pineapple-grapefruit, at least to my palate.
