Session ale for the barrel

[rich27500]

Having drunk my self to stupidity with friends watching the Avila premiership semi finals I realise I need a barrel full of ale that's not premium strength (first hangover in many years)

So today I'm trying this:
Pale malt 3.5 kg
Dark crystal malt 100g

Fuggles 55g 60mins
Brambling cross 20g 15 mins plus protafloc tab
East Kent goldings 15g 0mins

Hoping for 23l between 1035 and 1037

If you're wondering about that hop schedule it's what I've got!!!!

Have you run it through Beersmith or similar? If so how many IBUs does it say? It might be a little hoppy (if it's meant to be ,then apologies in advance),but the malt and blend of hops look like a classic British bitter.

Don't use beer smith and haven't calculated ibu's but yes it's supposed to be hoppy, just wanted something interesting at 4% or less. I got 24L at 1.040 after diluting so as long as it doesn't drop under 1.010 it's mission accomplished
