I don't want it too bitter and am just using up what I have. Is there anything you would add or take away? it's my 1st non recipe biab, so am just experimenting.

Looks good to me, though personally I'd lower the crystal to around 5%, but I'm not a fan of heavy crystal beers, my preference, up to 10% is ok which is what you have. For fruity character I think yeast choice would be where I'd look to more than ingredients, but if using what you have there's nothing to lose :thumb:

Great, lowered it to 5%. I can always up it in later brews as I've never used it before.
