Your recipe scored a SRM of 6.71, which should produce a light-colored dirty golden, dirty blonde color. Your grain bill doesn't provide much color given your ratio was 10:1 and you used relatively light roasted malt. Did you batch sparge or use a bag? Also, make sure your water:grain mash ratio is appropriate. 1.25qts-1.5quts to every 1 lb of malt.

Just a follow up.....It came out seriously tasty and just barely lighter than i might have wanted.  Made a small mistake in the dry hopping.  Put the hops in the screen tube that is the bottom filter for my mash tun.  trying to avoid floaters.  In the past had just poured them in and filtered going into the bottle bucket.   Didn't get as much of the citrus as i wanted but have had zero complaints from anyone drinking one.
