Sounds good - you're gonna get a lovely Goldings finish from those late hops :) I'd maybe take the IBUs down a few, but that's just personal preference for a session bitter - you're within the 1:1 BU:GU ratio already so it shouldn't be over hopped.

Thanks. All done now bar the shouting anyway - just chilling. Smells good (doesn't it always though!)
